Timothy Weah has been ruled out of Juventus’ clash with Napoli on Friday as the USMNT star’s return to action has been delayed again.
The Bianconeri will have to take the pitch against the reigning Serie A champions without Weah in their matchday squad. The 23-year-old is still nursing a thigh injury which he had picked up against Hellas Verona in late October.
Speaking to reporters, Juventus manager, Massimiliano Allegri informed: “Everyone has recovered except Weah. I’ll decide between Danilo and Alex Sandro tomorrow.”
Medical reports revealed that Weah had suffered an injury on the semitendinosus of his right thigh. Although it was referred to as a “low-grade” setback and was expected that the player would be fit to resume action after the November international break, that has not been the case.
Weah has missed the last four Serie A games due to the injury. Allegri might continue to use Weston McKennie in his absence as he did against Inter and Monza. Whereas, Andrea Cambiaso is another option who can also be deployed on the right side of midfield.
