When it seemed that things could not get any worse for Juventus at this start to the season in Serie A, bad news is added for Massimilano Allegri. Federico Chiesa has been disaffected from the call-up of the Italian National Team for this Wednesday’s match against Lithuania due to physical discomfort and returns early to Turin, leaving it in doubt for the match against Napoli.
La Gazzetta dello Sport has revealed that Federico Chiesa will head to Turin this Wednesday due to flexor problems, being left out of the Azzurra squad for the match against Lithuania for the World Cup Qualifying. Stefano Sensi has also left the list.
At the moment, the extent of Chiesa’s injury is unknown. However, it is not a good sign for Juventus, who will play a fundamental game this Saturday, September 11, against Napoli at the Diego Armando Maradona. His presence in the game against the Partenopeans may be at risk.
Delicate situation for Juventus
Juventus is going through difficult times. The Bianconero team has added only one point of the 6 disputed so far in Serie A (draw with Udinese and defeat with Empoli), which are added to the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo. Now they have a tough game with Napoli, the start of the Champions League against Malmo and another difficult game against Milan at Calcio.
It is clear that the start of the Vecchia Signora has not lived up to expectations. Now that they are forced to respond to direct opponents, they may lose who may be their most important player at the moment. Detailed information on the physical condition of Federico Chiesa is expected. (Bolavip)
