Juventus vs. Bologna match preview It’s May 20, 2024. It’s a rainy night in Bologna, and Juventus are rolling into town fresh off a Coppa Italia win but also without the manager who helped them win it. Instead, there’s a caretaker manager for the first time in a long time on the Juventus sideline, with the man who everybody expects to become the next full-time boss just a short distance away on the Bologna bench. It proved to be a wild night in the rain, with Juve going down 3-0 only to score three goals within 14 minutes to pull even and provide one last bit of last-season fireworks during a five-month run that was very much ... not that. Fast forward to this weekend and many of the major players in that late-May matchup in Bologna are now somewhere else. But one of the main protagonists will be on the sidelines once again — albeit on the one who calls Allianz Stadium home rather than when he was at the Dall’Ara. Saturday night in Turin will be the first time Thiago Motta faces Bologna since his summer move to Juventus, with both teams looking very, very different compared to when they took part in the six-goal thriller that had Paolo Montero sprinting down the sideline as he celebrated the final two goals of the night. ............ The good news is that the injury crisis has met a bit of a reprieve, with three players who missed the draw with Lecce — most notably Dusan Vlahovic — back in the fold to face Bologna, Motta said at his pre-match press conference. That does, on paper, make you believe that Juve’s attack will be more dangerous than it has been over the last few weeks as Vlahovic dealt with the muscle injury he picked up on international duty. But just because Vlahovic is back doesn’t necessarily mean everything is fixed. Juventus are a team that still very much is a work in progress, and with Motta being forced to work with limited options over the last few weeks, the injury situation has not eased the frustrations of a team that enters Saturday night with more draws (8) than wins (6) in Serie A so far this season. Four of Juventus’ last six Serie A fixtures have ended in draws. ............ Bologna entered Matchday 15 sitting in eighth place, five points behind Juventus. Just like when Juventus took on Lecce six days earlier, Saturday night’s matchup against Bologna has us asking the question of “Is this the day when Juve’s streak of draws comes to an end?” While we don’t know the question to that just yet, there’s one thing that’s for certain: if they continue to stack up draws one after another, it’s going to continue to put stress on the situation no matter the current status of those who are injured. Juventus need a win over Bologna for a variety of reasons, but the biggest might be just to feel that winning happiness once again. ............ TEAM NEWS I know it’s hard to believe considering what the last couple of weeks have been like, but Juventus actually received some good injury news this week. That included Dusan Vlahovic returning to full training with the squad on Wednesday and is going to be back in the matchday squad, according to Motta at his pre-match press conference. Another Juve attacker, teenager Vasilije Adžić, also returned to training this week. The final player back from injury and available to face Bologna is fullback Nicolo Savona, who was forced to come off injured in Juve’s Champions League draw against Aston Villa. That means Juventus’ injury list has gone down from nine to six players. They are: Gleison Bremer, Juan Cabal, Nico Gonzalez, Arek Milik, Douglas Luiz and Weston McKennie. Motta said that Juve youth sector players Diego Pugno, Augusto Owusu, Filippo Pagnucco and Niccolo Rizzo will also be called up to face Bologna on Saturday. ............ JUVENTUS PLAYER TO WATCH Well, Juventus actually has a No. 9 to play up front again. And, wouldn’t you know, it’s the guy who actually wears No. 9 on the back of his jersey. So, while so much of the conversation the last three games has been about what Juventus hasn’t been able to do without somebody like him out there, let’s talk about him coming back. Yep, it’s time to talk Dusan again. Obviously. ............ So now, as Juve look to actually get three points. If anything, simply having somebody like Vlahovic and his big frame up front rather than somebody shoehorned in there like Koopmeiners or Weah should help Juventus’ attack. That’s just the line of thinking, though. We know from this season and years past, just because Vlahovic is there it doesn’t always equate to goals being scored. If he isn’t seeing much of the ball or very much isolated for a variety of reasons. Even though we haven’t reached the midway point of the 2024-25 season, Bologna’s defense has already hit half the number of goals allowed (16) as they did a year ago under Motta (32). So, even though he is not facing a very vulnerable defense like Juve matched up against last weekend in Lecce, Bologna have proven to be susceptible to goals being scored against them. ............ MATCH INFO When: Saturday, Dec. 7, 2024. Where: Allianz Stadium, Turin, Italy. Official kickoff time: 6 p.m. in Italy and the Central European time zone, 5 p.m. in the United Kingdom, 12 p.m. Eastern time, 9 a.m. Pacific time. .

Danilo will not be available for transfer even if Juventus sign a new defender Danilo’s situation at Juventus has become a significant topic as the Brazilian defender underperforms and approaches the final six months of his contract. Once an undisputed starter and a key figure under former manager Max Allegri, Danilo now finds himself in a diminished role under Thiago Motta, who has often opted to bench the club captain when other defensive options are available. Despite his reduced playing time, Danilo reportedly wants to stay at Juventus and sign a new deal. However, the club appears less inclined to extend his contract, suggesting a potential parting of ways at the end of the season. Interest from other clubs could open the door to a January move, especially as Juventus is actively seeking reinforcements to address injuries to Juan Cabal and Gleison Bremer. ............ Danilo remains one of the most seasoned players in the squad, bringing leadership and experience to a relatively young team. While his on-pitch performances may not be at their peak, his presence in the dressing room and ability to step in when needed are still valuable. Allowing him to leave as a free agent next summer, rather than in January, ensures Juventus can maintain depth during a challenging campaign. ............ .

Guido Vaciago insists Juventus is on the right path despite their struggles This season has been challenging for Juventus, as they grapple with inconsistency. However, such struggles should not be unexpected, considering the club is working with a new manager and several new players. Despite this, the team continues to push forward, striving to stay competitive. Over time, they are expected to improve as they settle into the season. ............ Some supporters have already voiced frustration with manager Thiago Motta, but it is important to remember that he is only six months into the job. Additionally, the club has made several new signings who still need time to adjust. Journalist Guido Vaciago shared his thoughts on the situation at Juventus: “Today, Juventus has problems: many injuries, little brilliance in the offensive phase, and some distractions that have cost them precious points. Thiago Motta must invent solutions and Cristiano Giuntoli must prepare them for January: in short, there is a lot of work to do while the opponents (Atalanta and Napoli in particular) are moving quickly.” ............ “In short, the situation at Continassa is not easy. However, there is no sense of nervousness in difficult moments, despite the awareness of the circumstances. In fact, Juventus, in addition to the problems, has a direction, a path decided last spring in the planning phase for the future. There is an economic plan, there is a technical program, and there are comforting signs that the path taken is good. Motta is building.” ............ .

When will Nicolas Gonzalez return to fitness for Juventus? Nicolas Gonzalez last played for Juventus two months ago, and since then, he has missed nine matches for the Bianconeri. His absence has been a significant blow, as Juve signed him to become one of their key attacking players. He started his tenure at the club on a positive note, showcasing the skills that made him an important addition to the squad. The Bianconeri had always viewed him as an integral part of their future plans, and they are desperately in need of his return to full fitness. However, Gonzalez’s injury troubles are not a new issue. Before joining Juventus, he was known to be injury-prone during his time at Fiorentina, which raised some concerns. Now, Juventus is facing the consequences of those concerns, with the player’s fitness issues continuing to hamper the team’s progress. Gonzalez will miss the upcoming matches against Bologna and Manchester City, which further complicates matters for Juventus as they head into a crucial period of the season. The hope is that Gonzalez may be ready to return for their match against Venezia in mid-December, but even that timeline remains uncertain. ............ Given these repeated setbacks, Juventus may need to consider finding a replacement for Gonzalez in the January transfer window. If the Argentine winger does not return by the end of the year, it might be necessary for Juve to bring in another option to ensure the team’s depth and attacking power. ............ .

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. ............ .
