Juventus’ Alvaro Morata took control of the ball during the UEFA Champions League Group G phase match between Juventus and FC Barcelona
INDOSPORT.COM – Ahead of the clash with AC Milan in the Italian Serie A continued, Juventus turned out to be left behind by one of its stars.
Bad news comes to Juventus ahead of their duel against AC Milan at the San Siro on Thursday morning WIB. Juventus are certainly aware that the victory at the San Siro will really help them if they still want to become Italian Serie A champions.
For information, Juventus are currently 10 points behind AC Milan, who are at the top of the standings. But Juventus still has one game more than AC Milan.
That means if you win in the match’s savings and when you clash with AC Milan, the difference in points will be just 4. Unfortunately, Juventus seems to be hampered by that mission after they are confirmed to be left by 1 star.
According to Goal, the star player in question is Alvaro Morata. The Juventus mainstay striker was diagnosed with a problem in his thigh so he had to miss AC Milan.
But actually Morata was also absent when he won over Udinese in the previous match. So it turns out that Morata has indeed suffered an injury before fighting Udinese while doing training.
“Morata had a problem in his last training session (before against Udinese), we have to evaluate how badly his injury is. But for sure Morata will not play against AC Milan, ”said Juventus coach, Andrea Pirlo.
Luckily for Pirlo, Juventus still has Paulo Dybala who can replace Morata’s role to accompany Cristiano Ronaldo in attack. Even so, Dybala is not a pure striker so losing Morata could be a loss for Juventus ahead of AC Milan.
