Juventus vs Bologna: Preview and Prediction Thiago Motta prepares for a reunion with his former side as Juventus prepare to take on Bologna, with the pressure to keep up with the top five. Juventus are at risk of falling behind in the title race as the five teams above them in the standings are clearing room as they get set to host Bologna at the Allianz Stadium. The Bianconeri suffered another setback with yet another draw that saw them drop more points in the title race. Their 1-1 draw away to US Lecce was their third in a row in all competitions and fourth in five games, which could come to bite back later in the season. It’s a similar pattern that ensued earlier in the season, although Juventus have the firepower to bounce back and make their presence felt in the race. Meanwhile, Motta will have to prove a point against former side Bologna, as they visit Turin ahead of Saturday. Bologna have performed in a different way than many had expected, but they are not too much off the pace, as their current position in the 8th spot suggests. ............ Team News & Tactics Juventus Thiago Motta still has a long injury list to contend with, Gleison Bremer and Arkadiusz Milik aside; they have winger Nico Gonzalez missing, while full-back pair Juan Cabal and Nicolo Savona are also absent with injury issues. Midfield pair Weston McKennie and Douglas Luiz are also out of the contest, meaning Motta’s options in many kep positions are thin heading into this weekend’s game. In those full-back positions, Danilo and Andrea Cambiaso are expected to start. Motta will continue to pick Khephren Thuram and Manuel Locatelli in his midfield. Francisco Conceicao is in line to start on the right wing, with Kenan Yildiz on the other flank. Teun Koopmeiners will complete the attacking setup behind striker Dusan Vlahovic, who will lead the line for Juventus. Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Danilo, Gatti, Kalulu, Cambiaso; Thuram, Locatell; Conceicao, Koopmeiners, Yildiz; Vlahovic Bologna ............ Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Skorupski; Posch, Beukema, Lucumi, Miranda; Freuler, Moro; Dominguez, Odgaard, Ndoye; Castro Key Stats Juventus are undefeated in their last 26 matches against Bologna in all competitions. Juventus are undefeated in their last 22 matches in Serie A. Juventus have drawn their last three games in all competitions. Bologna have won three of their last four matches in Serie A. Bologna are 5 points behind Juventus in the current Serie A standings. Player to Watch Dusan Vlahovic Juventus are dealing with another injury crisis, as the list has grown long, and Thiago Motta has yet to find a solution to creating enough chances in games. Some of their recent draws are proof of their inefficiency in the final third, as Vlahovic’s return will be a welcome boost for the Bianconeri. ............ Prediction Juventus 1-0 Bologna Bologna are in a good run of form and could take on Juventus in a challenging way on Saturday. Vincenzo Italiano will want a big fight in Turin from his players, as this is a chance to close the gap on the Bianconeri and return to their objective of finishing in a big European place. Juventus, on the other hand, may not have had results go their way recently, but they are still a strong side to deal with. The return of Dusan Vlahovic could be key to determining which way this result swings, as the Bianconeri are tipped to take three points with a slender scoreline. .

Serie A Preview: Juventus vs Bologna – Team News, Line-ups & Prediction New Juventus manager Thiago Motta faces former employers Bologna in one of the standout fixtures of Serie A Matchday 15. Saturday’s encounter at the Allianz Stadium has all the makings of a must-win clash for the home side amid their faltering Scudetto pursuit. Conceding a heartbreaking stoppage-time equalizer condemned Juventus to a 1-1 away draw against Lecce, marking their sixth stalemate across their last eight outings in all competitions (W2). That inability to turn single-point affairs into victories has significantly derailed Bianconeri’s hopes of halting a four-year title duck in Serie A. ............ Match Preview Juventus In dire need of three points, Juventus come into this fixture looking to put a decisive halt to a three-game winless run against Bologna. All three showdowns have ended all square, with the Bianconeri conceding the opening goal on each occasion, underscoring the magnitude of the task awaiting them this weekend. Therefore, another stalemate is well on the cards. As aforementioned, sharing the spoils has been a running theme for Juventus this season, especially in Turin. Motta’s men have drawn half of their home games in all competitions (W2, D3, L1) but remain undefeated in their last 14 Serie A outings at the Allianz Stadium (W6, D8). Remarkably, those results form part of Juve’s formidable 22-match unbeaten streak in league action, accounting for the longest current run without losing in Italy’s top flight. Extending that purple patch may also witness a quick-fire start. Indeed, three of Juventus’ last four home league matches have produced an opener inside the first 20 minutes. Bologna Italiano has recovered from a miserable start, re-establishing Bologna as one of the most resilient and tactically disciplined sides in Serie A this season. In addition to winning four of their last five league contests (L1), the Rossoblu humbled Monza 4-0 in midweek Coppa Italia action, consolidating their spirits ahead of this road trip. ............ Team News Long-term absentees Arkadiusz Millik, Douglas Luiz, Gleison Bremer, Juan Cabal, and Nicolas Gonzalez have got company in the treatment room amid a full-blown injury crisis in Turin. Weston McKeenie is the latest Juventus ace to be sidelined by an injury. However, Dusan Vlahovic is back to full fitness and should spearhead the attack. ............ Juventus vs Bologna Potential Starting Line-up Juventus (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Danilo, Kalulu, Gatti, Cambiaso; Locatelli, Thuram; Conceicao, Koopmeiners, Yildiz; Vlahovic. Bologna (4-2-3-1): Skorupski; Posch, Beukema, Lucumi, Miranda; Freuler, Moro; Ndoye, Odgaard, Dominguez; Castro. Juventus vs Bologna Prediction This meeting has a low-scoring theme written all over it. Though both teams have thrived in such circumstances, the home comforts of the Allianz Stadium favor Juventus for the win. We back the hosts to live up to the billing. Prediction: Juventus to Win .

Motta confirms Vlahovic will make his return to action against Bologna For the majority of the 2024-25 season, Juventus coach Thiago Motta has been leaning on Dusan Vlahovic to shoulder the load of playing time up front. Juve’s only other option in the No. 9 position, Arek Milik, has been injured ever since June, meaning the big Serbian had started every game up until last month when he suffered a muscle injury during the November international break. After missing three games due to said injury, word came out earlier this week that Vlahovic had returned to training — a welcome sight for a Juve attack that struggled mightily to score goals in his absence. On Friday, Motta confirmed that the 24-year-old striker would return to the squad that will face Bologna at the Allianz Stadium. ............ “Dusan will be in the group tomorrow. He’s trained with the team this week,” Motta said at his pre-match press conference. “We are happy Vlahovic is back to do what he loves and his work, which is to enter the pitch and play football.” ............ “Adzic and Savona will also be back,” Motta said. “We are happy that there is more depth in the squad again, but also personally for those returning to be able to do their job on the pitch. We will also have youngsters Diego Pugno, Augusto Owusu, Filippo Pagnucco and Niccolò Rizzo in the squad with us tomorrow.” ............ “I spent two fantastic years in Bologna at a human and sporting level. I have nothing to add about the rest,” the 42-year-old Motta said. ............ Besides the big injury boosts with Vlahovic and Savona returning this weekend, Juventus also have the good fortune of being able to play their next four games in front of their fans at the Allianz Stadium. After three straight games away from home coming out of the international break, Motta’s squad won’t head back out on the road until they play against Monza a couple of days before Christmas. “We would like to thank the fans again who will come to support us in large numbers at the stadium tomorrow: the important thing is what we do on the pitch and the quality of our play”. ............ .

Juventus could welcome back three injured players against Man City Juventus is slowly seeing their injury crisis ease, with several key players nearing a return to action. Manager Thiago Motta has kept the team unbeaten in Serie A despite being forced to adapt to a stretched squad, showcasing resilience and tactical flexibility. The return of injured stars is set to bolster Juve’s options, providing much-needed reinforcements as the season intensifies. Among the players expected back soon is striker Dusan Vlahovic, whose recovery is progressing well. ............ Additionally, the Bianconeri anticipate welcoming Weston McKennie, Douglas Luiz, and Nicolo Savona back to the fold in the coming days. These players are expected to regain full fitness ahead of Juventus’ high-profile clash against Manchester City. This critical Champions League fixture presents an opportunity for Juve to make a strong statement on the European stage, and having key players available could make all the difference. ............ As the team transitions into a phase of greater stability, fans will hope the worst of the injury woes are behind them. Juventus is determined to capitalise on this period of recovery and use their rejuvenated squad to push for success domestically and in Europe. ............ .

Giuntoli hands Juventus and advantage in the race to sign Victor Osimhen Juventus remains determined to pursue Victor Osimhen despite knowing the challenges involved in negotiating with Napoli, a club notorious for avoiding deals with their Serie A rivals. The Nigerian striker, currently on loan at Galatasaray, has reignited his career after a summer of uncertainty. His decision to leave Napoli came as no surprise, given his desire for a fresh challenge and the lack of attractive offers from top European clubs at the time. Osimhen’s exceptional performances in Turkey have caught the attention of Europe’s elite once more. ............ Paris Saint-Germain has emerged as a serious contender. The French giants, armed with substantial financial resources, are prepared to make an aggressive push for the striker. However, Juventus might hold a crucial edge in the race, thanks to the presence of Cristiano Giuntoli. The Bianconeri’s sporting director was instrumental in bringing Osimhen to Napoli during his time with the Partenopei. His established rapport with the player’s camp could prove decisive in swaying Osimhen toward Turin. ............ Osimhen is open to reuniting with Giuntoli, a factor that places Juventus in a favourable position. Despite this advantage, the Bianconeri will need to make a significant financial commitment to secure the deal. Osimhen remains one of the world’s most prolific strikers, and his current contract situation—with just one year remaining—means Napoli could demand a sizable fee despite limited leverage. ............ .

Gigi Maifredi explains how Juventus can get the most from Koopmeiners Former Juventus coach Gigi Maifredi has weighed in on the club’s struggles to maximise Teun Koopmeiners’ potential following his summer move from Atalanta. The Dutch midfielder was one of the standout players in Serie A during his time with La Dea, where his contributions were instrumental in their success, including their Europa League triumph last season. This earned him a high-profile transfer to Juventus, but his performances so far have left much to be desired. ............ “I think Motta wants to do a copy-paste of what we saw in Bologna but it’s impossible. He’s missing Calafiori, who sets up from the back, someone like Ferguson, and especially Zirkzee, who received the ball and then invented something. Koopmeiners is someone who has no role, he has to find space; if you cage him, he becomes someone who produces less.” ............ These comments underscore the complexity of Koopmeiners’ situation. At Atalanta, he thrived in a system designed to leverage his unique qualities, but Juventus has yet to find the right formula. His potential remains undeniable, but the onus is on Motta and his coaching staff to unlock it. ............ .

Ma guarda, non mi permetto di criticare un professionista. Mi sembra solo strano che cambiano i preparatori atletici ma gli infortuni non diminuiscono. E forse le responsabilitá sono anche di qualcuno che lavora alla Juve da tanti anni. Non sono nessuno per giudicare. Questo é un compito di chi dirige la Juventus. Certo é che tutti questi infortuni che non si risolvono in breve tempo danno da pensare. Ecco un frammento di diversi video interessanti sul sito youtube del giornalista Lorenzo Bulgarelli.

Gleison Bremer will be in the stands when Juventus takes on Bologna this weekend Gleison Bremer’s injury has kept him out of action since the early part of the season, depriving Juventus of one of their most reliable defensive pillars. The Brazilian, known for his commanding presence and ability to marshal the defence, has been instrumental in Juventus’ recent successes. His absence has created a void in the backline that has been difficult to fill, as Juventus initially struggled to maintain their defensive stability without him. Before his injury, Bremer was a critical component of the team, anchoring the defence with exceptional positioning, tackling, and aerial prowess. Juventus’ defensive record under his guidance was one of the best in Serie A, and his contributions were evident in their ability to thwart opponents’ attacks consistently. ............ To address the gap left by Bremer’s absence, Juventus plans to strengthen their defensive ranks during the January transfer window. A new signing would provide much-needed depth while the team waits for Bremer’s eventual return. Despite his injury, Bremer remains a fan favourite, and his importance to the squad has not diminished. Fans have been eagerly awaiting updates on his recovery, and many will be delighted by the news of his upcoming public appearance. Bremer is set to attend Juventus’ Serie A match against Bologna this weekend as a special guest. His presence at the Allianz Stadium will undoubtedly uplift the spirits of supporters and teammates alike. While his return to the pitch is still some way off, his recovery is reportedly progressing well, and the club is optimistic about his eventual comeback. ............ .

The Super League idea is set to get another facelift. Should Juventus return? Juventus has been one of the more notable advocates of the European Super League project, standing alongside clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona in their initial allegiance to the idea. However, since the project’s collapse in 2021, the Bianconeri have rejoined the European Club Association (ECA), signalling a return to UEFA’s fold and, at least publicly, an abandonment of Super League ambitions. ............ Despite the setbacks, Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez has not relinquished the vision of the Super League. Following a ruling from the European Court of Justice, which limited UEFA’s monopoly over European football, proponents of the Super League have reportedly been revising their plans. Pérez is working on a revamped version of the competition, which will feature a more merit-based structure rather than the previously criticised closed league system. This new approach could entice hesitant clubs, including PSG and Bayern Munich, to join the project. For Juventus, the prospect of rejoining such a venture remains uncertain. While the potential financial benefits could be tempting, the club’s recent return to the ECA suggests they are currently prioritising stability within the UEFA framework. Entering a revived Super League would carry significant risks, particularly given the lingering scepticism about its viability and widespread fan opposition. ............ .

Preview: Juventus vs. Bologna - prediction, team news, lineups After yet another draw last weekend, Juventus fell further off the pace in Serie A's title race, so they will seek maximum points from Saturday's clash with Bologna. While Juve were denied victory in stoppage time by lowly Lecce, their revived visitors have won in both league and cup over the past week, scoring seven goals without reply. Match preview ............ Unbeaten in 24 league meetings with Bologna - winning 17 times in the process - Juventus will hope to continue in that vein on Saturday evening, before facing Premier League champions Manchester City next week. Given Juve's recent propensity for stalemates, the sides have fittingly drawn all three of their most recent encounters, including a six-goal thriller in Bologna last season, when the away side fought back from three goals behind. ............ Team News Amid a long series of injuries, there may be some light at the end of the tunnel for Juventus this weekend, as young full-back Nicolo Savona and top scorer Dusan Vlahovic should be back in the squad following layoffs. The latter has scored six league goals against Bologna to date, though his last Serie A strike from open play at the Allianz Stadium came back in February - 12 games ago. Back-up striker Arkadiusz Milik (knee) and the South American quartet of Juan Cabal, Bremer (both ACL), Nico Gonzalez (thigh) and Douglas Luiz (muscular) are all unavailable, but Weston McKennie may be back in action after missing the trip down to Lecce with a muscular problem. ............ Juventus possible starting lineup: Di Gregorio; Danilo, Kalulu, Gatti, Cambiaso; Locatelli, Thuram; Conceicao, Koopmeiners, Yildiz; Vlahovic Bologna possible starting lineup: Skorupski; Posch, Beukema, Lucumi, Miranda; Freuler, Moro; Ndoye, Odgaard, Dominguez; Castro We say: Juventus 1-0 Bologna Bologna have won three of their first seven away games this season, but stubborn Juventus are one of a trio of teams still unbeaten across Europe's top five leagues. It should be a close-fought contest in Turin, with Thiago Motta just finding a way to defeat his old club and end Juve's wait for a win. .

Probable Juventus lineup vs Bologna: Vlahovic set for immediate start Juventus bomber Dusan Vlahovic is reportedly warming up his engines, as he could be selected in the starting lineup against Bologna. The 24-year-old was chastised by a section of the supporters and the media for some lackluster displays, and he even made things worse with some curious statements while on international duty. And yet, the Bianconeri’s frontline has been a shamble in his absence, especially with Arek Milik still nursing a knee injury. ............ Nevertheless, the Serbia international has now recovered and has already rejoined his teammates in training. He, alongside Vaslilije Adzic should receive a call-up for Saturday’s Serie A clash against Bologna. It's expected the former Fiorentina star to be included in the starting formation. ............ Juventus (4-2-3-1): Perin, Danilo, Gatti, Kalulu, Cambiaso, Locatelli, Thuram, Conceicao, Koopmeiners, Yildiz, Vlahovic. Coach: Thiago Motta. .

Juventus could set new defensive record in Saturday’s match against Bologna Juventus will have the opportunity to register a new club record by earning another clean sheet against Bologna, even if it would come with a bittersweet taste. ............ Juventus have at least been solid at the back, already registering 10 clean sheets from their 14 Serie A outings. The Turin-based giants will have the opportunity to set a new club record if they manage to prevent Bologna from scoring in Saturday’s encounter at the Allianz Stadium. This would be the first time in their history that Juventus collect 11 clean sheets in their first 15 Serie A contests. Overall, only Milan were able to record 12 shutouts from 15 matches, setting a long-standing league record since 1971/72. Moreover, Juventus could be on the right path to set a new season record for clean sheets. The number to beat currently stands at 22. ............ .

Club World Cup 2025 Draw: Juventus get Manchester City, Wydad AC and Al Ain The 2025 edition of the Club World Cup is very much a trip into the unknown. That’s not only because this is the first edition of this new-look summer tournament as compared to the very small winter one, but there’s also been a whole lot of uncertainty about just how all of it is going to go down. ............ We’ve slowly heard about venues in the United States. And, just a couple of days after the pots for the draw were released, we heard who Juventus will play in the Club World Cup group stage. During Thursday’s draw hosted by a certain well-dressed Italian man named Alessandro Del Piero in Miami — where Leo Messi and Inter Miami will host the tournament’s opening game come June 15 — Juve’s group stage opponents were revealed. Sitting in Pot 2 and subsequently drawn into Group G, Juventus were drawn against English champions Manchester City, CAF Champions League winners from 2021-22 Wydad AC out of Morocco and Dubai side Al Ain FC, providing the first major talking point for what this summer tournament will actually look like other than where games are being played. Juventus’ opening Club World Cup fixture will be against Al Ain, with the final group stage matchup coming against Pep Guardiola’s Man City. (Yes, the same Manchester City that Juve will face in the Champions League next week. You can be the judge as to which one will have bigger importance to Thiago Motta and Co.) ............ .

Longtime injured Juventus star has already resumed athletic training The lengthy injury ordeal of Arkadiusz Milik could be finally drawing to an end, as the Juventus striker has reportedly made his return to the training ground. The Polish striker has been out of action since June when he sustained a knee injury that ruled him out of Euro 2024. The bomber had been initially expected to return in October, but the pain persisted, forcing him to go under the knife. ............ On the other hand, Milik’s condition still requires some time on the sidelines, but at least the Poland international is making significant steps on his path towards recovery. The 30-year-old has already resumed his athletic training on the pitch. These personalized exercises are essential for the player to regain fitness and avoid any relapses. Milik will be expected to rejoin his teammates in group training in the middle of the month, while his much-anticipated return to action should ensue in January. ............ .

Official: Juventus strike two-year agreement with new sponsor Juventus have announced an endorsement agreement with TIM who becomes the club’s newest sponsor. The Italian telecommunications giant has long been associated with football. They had even acquired the naming rights of the league, which was commercially branded as “Serie A TIM”. However, their agreement with Lega Serie A has recently expired. Nevertheless, the company was hellbent on staying in the football industry, so they have now struck an agreement with the country’s most popular club. The Bianconeri made the announcement on Thursday, revealing that the two parties have penned a two-year agreement that makes TIM the club’s “premium partner”. Juventus and TIM are delighted to announce a new two-year partnership that will see Italy’s leading telecommunications company become the club’s Premium Partner,” reads the statement posted on the club’s official website. ............ “Two companies that constantly strive for excellence, setting themselves ambitious and innovative goals. “Always involved in the world of sport, and football in particular, we are delighted that Tim, by partnering with Juventus, has decided to have maximum visibility on the sleeve of our women’s first team and U-20 side, as a testimony to the valuable path undertaken. ............ .

Christmas gift for Motta: Juventus looking to purchase impressive loanee Juventus are aiming to secure an agreement with Porto over the permanent transfer of Francisco Conceicao in the coming weeks. ............ Therefore, the Serie A giants adopted a curious approach, signing the Portugal international on a loan deal that doesn’t include an obligation or an option to buy, thus leaving the player’s future hanging in the air, at least from a legal perspective. Nevertheless, it later emerged that Juventus had a gentlemen’s agreement with the Dragao over a future permanent move. This operation was orchestrated by the player’s agent, Jorge Mendes. ............ This could end being serving as a Christmas present for Thiago Motta who has been heavily relying on Conceincao. After all, the latter has been one of the club’s most consistent performers, establishing himself as a regular starter on the right wing, especially with Nico Gonzalez enduring a lengthy injury ordeal. ............ .

Moggi: “Juventus not ready for the Scudetto, Here are Giuntoli and Thiago Motta’s mistakes” Luciano Moggi, the former general manager of Juventus, recently shared his views on the current state of the club. In an interview, Moggi commented on Juventus’ performance, highlighting the challenges they face and pointing out specific errors made by Cristiano Giuntoli and Thiago Motta. “At this moment, Juventus is difficult to judge,” Moggi stated. “They started a new project in July, and it takes time; a team isn’t built in five months or even a year. Injuries have greatly complicated things, but once the emergency ends, results will improve.” Discussing the team’s prospects, Moggi remarked, “Juventus is not equipped to win the Scudetto. The objective can be fourth place because three teams—Napoli, Atalanta, and Inter—are stronger. It won’t be easy to achieve, but it’s within reach if Vlahovic and Gonzalez can recover soon.” ............ “Errors have been made. Giuntoli should not have bought Douglas Luiz; he would have been better off staying in the Premier League. Thiago Motta errs by playing Koopmeiners too far forward with his back to goal, where he is less effective. ............ “More than one adjustment is needed; it seems this team lacks leaders. Bremer was one such leader but unfortunately will return next year due to a severe injury. ............ I would sell Douglas Luiz instead of Fagioli, who has shown in the past to be an excellent player.” .

Calciopoli & Scommessopoli In English
Socrates ha risposto al topic di gsol in Juventus news in English
Buffon: “Calciopoli? I have the medals, I know who was stronger” Gianluigi Buffon, the legendary former Juventus and Italy goalkeeper, recently gave an extensive interview to Juventibus, reflecting on his illustrious career and touching upon significant moments such as Serie B, Calciopoli, and more. ............ Reflecting on Juventus’ relegation, Buffon said: “Serie B was very special and beautiful. It was one of the reasons that led me to make a choice that conditioned my career. I was 28 years old; it was the best period for a professional goalkeeper. I did it because I felt it was the right choice.” On Calciopoli, Buffon stated: “I’ve always focused on what happened on the field. Those championships that were discussed, I lived as a protagonist with my teammates as the team to beat. I still have those medals; I smile at them because I know what happened on the field and who deserved it.” He described his feelings during the scandal: “For me, it was humiliating to be called into question. You can say anything about me; sometimes I do unusual things, but don’t touch certain aspects because you’re touching the wrong person.” ............ .

Juventus hopes Douglas Luiz will be fit for their next Champions League game Douglas Luiz’s injury layoff, stretching over 40 days, has been a troubling development for Juventus. Signed in the summer transfer window with high expectations, Luiz was heralded as one of the finest midfielders to emerge from the Premier League. The move to Turin was seen as a statement signing for the Bianconeri, with hopes that he would bring creativity, physicality, and control to the midfield. However, his journey has been far from smooth, with injuries and a lack of form defining his first few months in Italy. ............ Despite these setbacks, Juventus remains patient with Luiz. According to reports, the club has no intention of selling him during the January transfer window. This decision reflects their long-term faith in his potential and belief that he can turn his fortunes around once fit. However, Luiz is still not training with the group, casting doubt on his availability for the upcoming Serie A clash against Bologna. Juventus now aims to have him ready for the crucial Champions League encounter against Manchester City—a game with personal significance for Luiz, given his history at the English club. ............ .

Does Juventus regrets not making Conte their manager again? Juventus reportedly considered Antonio Conte for a managerial return in the summer but ultimately decided to appoint Thiago Motta, favouring a fresh approach over bringing back a former coach. Conte, who previously led the Bianconeri to great success, including multiple Scudetti, was seen as a natural choice by many fans and analysts. However, Juventus’s recent experiences with Max Allegri’s second stint, which ended in underwhelming results, likely influenced their reluctance to rehire Conte. Conte, after not receiving a call from Juventus, joined Napoli and has since turned the Partenopei into serious title contenders, further highlighting his managerial prowess. Napoli’s success under Conte has sparked debate among pundits, with some suggesting Juventus may regret their decision. Massimo Brambati hinted at this sentiment, emphasising Conte’s ability to instil a winning mentality in his teams. He remarked, “Conte is an added value, both on the field and in the group. Napoli hasn’t grown in the game but in group mentality. This makes the difference, that stuff is transmitted to you by the coach and you carry it with you.” ............ Despite Conte’s proven track record, Juventus opted for Thiago Motta, an emerging managerial talent with a different style and vision. The decision likely reflects the club’s desire to chart a new course. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/does-juventus-regrets-not-making-conte-their-manager-again/

Thiago Motta could recover two players before the Bologna game Juventus prepares to face Bologna this weekend as they push to recover momentum in what has been a challenging season so far. The Bianconeri have grappled with an unusually high number of injuries, leaving the team significantly weakened at key moments. Missing as many as nine critical players during their last outing against Lecce, Juventus struggled to secure a win, but there is optimism heading into their next fixture. Juventus may receive a significant boost with the potential return of Dusan Vlahovic and Vasilije Adžić for the Bologna clash. The return of these players could offer much-needed reinforcement for a squad that has been stretched thin.
