Juve, Alcaraz towards his debut as a starter, first as a former player for Giuntoli at Maradona

Carlitos Alcaraz runs quickly towards his first starting shirt since arriving at Juventus: the injuries of McKennie and Rabiot pave the way for him and the situation will most likely not be limited to just one match. At Maradona it will be special for him, as it is for every Argentine playing in their first year in Serie A, but also for Cristiano Giuntoli, who will appear in front of the fans of his former team for the first time, a few months after the championship celebration.

INFIRMARY

Today’s training was characterized by bad weather: heavy rain and rather low temperatures. Kean was seen again on the pitch with his teammates, aiming to be available again to earn his first call-up against Atalanta. All the other injured players (Danilo, Perin, De Sciglio, McKennie and Rabiot) have worked separately and are unlikely to be able to be present in the next away match, apart from the hopes of the captain who would not want to leave his teammates alone in such a delicate away match at this time of the season.

TOWARDS NAPLES

As for Allegri’s probable choices, even if it is still early because there are several days of work in between, we could move towards the confirmation of the defensive package that took the field against Frosinone: Bremer in the middle with Gatti and Rugani in the arms, Szczesny’s protection. In midfield, Miretti and Nicolussi Caviglia should compete for a shirt to play alongside Alcaraz and Locatelli. In attack, however, Chiesa should find continuity: he is the favorite to support Vlahovic from the first minute.
