Key Takeaways
- Kenan Yildiz and Dusan Vlahovic have both returned to full training with the Juventus squad.
- The Bianconeri face Hellas Verona on Sunday as they chase a top-four finish and Champions League qualification.
- Only Juan Cabal and Arkadiusz Milik remain unavailable for selection due to injury.
Juventus have received welcome injury news ahead of their weekend clash. Both Kenan Yildiz and Dusan Vlahovic took part in full training sessions this week. The Turkish midfielder and the Serbian striker are now ready for selection.
The Bianconeri host Hellas Verona at the Allianz Stadium on Sunday. Kick-off is set for 17:00 UK time (18:00 CEST). Head coach Thiago Motta hopes to secure fourth place in the table. A win would strengthen their position for Champions League qualification next season.
Yildiz has managed a persistent tendon problem in recent weeks. He has mostly appeared as a substitute during this period. However, he completed the entire session with his teammates on Thursday. Medical staff now expect him to start against Verona.
Vlahovic also trained without restrictions alongside the squad. The forward missed several months earlier this season with a serious thigh injury. He then suffered a minor calf problem during warm-ups last month. The coaching staff will manage his minutes carefully, but he should feature more prominently this weekend.
Randal Kolo Muani is likely to lead the attack from the start. Yildiz and Francisco Conceicao should provide support in the forward positions. Meanwhile, full-back Juan Cabal and striker Arkadiusz Milik are still recovering from their injuries.
Verona visit Turin with little to play for. They sit near the bottom of the Serie A table and face almost certain relegation.
