João Mário under fire in Italy: his stats at Juventus | OneFootball

Since arriving at Juventus, João Mário has been the target of criticism and has not managed to win over the fans of the Turin club. He has become a regular substitute, with Pierre Kalulu taking over as the starting right-back.

The Portuguese international has totaled only 330 minutes of playing time, spread over nine matches, and has recorded one assist. In the last five games, he has come on three times and only started against Villarreal, in the Champions League, where he was substituted during the match.

Juventus invested 12.6 million euros in his signing during the summer. His transfer was the opposite of Alberto Costa’s, who has been winning over the critics while playing for the Dragons.

His contract with the club runs until 2030, but if his performance does not improve, his stay in Turin could be short. Juventus is preparing to replace the coach after the departure of Igor Tudor, a change that could benefit the Portuguese international.
