Juventus goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio has been forced to disable the comments section on his social media profiles after he and his family were subjected to threats and abuse after a series of sub-par performances for the Bianconeri.
The month of February has not been kind to Juventus, who have lost four of their last five matches across all competitions: A 3-0 Coppa Italia exit at the hands of Atalanta, a controversial 3-2 defeat against rivals Inter in the Derby d’Italia, a 5-2 thumping by Galatasaray in the Champions League and a 2-0 defeat at home against Como in Serie A most recently.
Goalkeeper Di Gregorio has also earned his fair share of criticism after a series of poor performances between the posts.

There have been various matches this season in which Juventus have conceded goals that Di Gregorio should have prevented, including against Inter, Borussia Dortmund, Sporting CP, Fiorentina, Lazio, Galatasaray and Como.
The disappointing displays from the Juventus stopper have led to his receiving various insults and threats on social media. Some have called him an ‘Interista’ given that he was born in Milan and spent almost 20 years on the Nerazzurri books as a youngster. Others have called him a ‘liability’ and others have referred to him as a ‘piece of sh**’.

According to various outlets on Tuesday morning, Di Gregorio has also received more serious threats to himself and his family, which has led him to disable the comments section on his Instagram profile.
Inter defender Alessandro Bastoni recently took the same measure after being subjected to abuse from ‘fans’ after the controversial Derby d’Italia between the Nerazzurri and Juventus earlier this month.
