New injury concern for Juventus as Fagioli misses training | OneFootball

Multiple reports claim Juventus midfielder Nicolò Fagioli didn’t train with the rest of the team this morning.

Italy international Fagioli didn’t train with the rest of the Juventus team this morning and is in doubt for the next Serie A match against Lazio on Saturday.

Gazzetta and Sky Sport Italia claim the 23-year-old had picked up a knock while on international duty with the Azzurri, so he didn’t join the rest of the Juventus team for a training session today.

Thiago Motta is already short of options in the middle of the park, being without Teun Koopmeiners and Weston McKennie, who will surely miss the Lazio game.

Koopmeiners has been diagnosed with a rib injury, while McKennie has muscle fatigue. However, the USMNT midfielder is expected to return to action before the Dutchman.

Nico Gonzalez, Arkadiusz Milik and Gleison Bremer are also unavailable for the Old Lady due to injuries, while Francisco Conceiçao will serve a one-game ban against Lazio.
