Juve: Vlahovic fitness check for Cagliari, reason for UCL absence | OneFootball

There are updates regarding Dusan Vlahovic at Juventus, who was thought to have only rested in the Champions League, but the reason is different.

Juventus, checks expected in the coming hours for Vlahovic: His presence against Cagliari is in doubt

Juventus is preparing for the next match against Cagliari, but Spalletti may have to do without his number 9.

The Serbian striker did not take the field in the away match in Bodo, and the reason for his absence is revealed by TuttoSport:

“The Serbian, during the pre-match warm-up, experienced slight muscle discomfort in the flexor. Hence the decision by Luciano Spalletti, who had already planned to let him rest after the match with Fiorentina, to keep him on the bench for all 90 minutes.

This was a precautionary measure, as Vlahovic was dealing with adductor overload less than a week ago. Dusan will undergo medical examinations at J-Medical this morning. Even though, according to initial impressions, it shouldn’t be anything too serious. However, given the many upcoming fixtures scheduled until the end of the year, it cannot be ruled out that Spalletti might decide to keep him on the bench for Saturday's game against Cagliari as well.”
