Paulo Dybala could once again start from the bench in Juventus’ Champions League clash against Dynamo Kiev on Tuesday, reports in Italy claim.
The Argentinean wasn’t happy for not being involved at all in the Old Lady’s 1-1 draw at Crotone at the weekend.
“He was upset because he didn’t come in on Saturday but he is coming back from three months of inactivity and three days in a room in Argentina being treated for an intestinal virus,” Pirlo explained in a pre-match press conference.
“He could play in Crotone but we were reduced to ten men and it was not possible to let him in.
“Now he is available, sooner or later he will have to enter the pitch.”
Reports in Italy suggest it may be later rather than sooner as La Joya is set to start from the bench against Dynamo Kiev.
Although Pirlo could use him in the second half, “Il Maestro” is likely to start with the Aaron Ramsey behind the two strikers Alvaro Morata and Dejan Kulusevski.
Wojciech Szczęsny is expected to start in goal after that he was rested at Crotone. Danilo, Leonardo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini will be the defenders of a three-man back-line while the young Gianluca Frabotta may start wide on the left in a Bianconeri’s midfield completed by Adrien Rabiot, Rodrigo Bentancur and Juan Cuadrado.
The Colombian may also start on the left with Federico Chiesa on the right-hand side of the pitch and Frabotta on the bench.
