Juventus Coach Massimiliano Allegri could drop €90m man Gonzalo Higuain for the Serie A opener against Fiorentina.
The striker played 90 minutes in the 2-2 friendly draw against Espanyol, but was unable to get on the scoresheet for his new club, having joined from Napoli for a Serie A record fee.
Now Tuttosport is reporting that Allegri is likely to start with Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala up-front for the Bianconeri’s first Serie A fixture of the season.

Now Tuttosport is reporting that Allegri is likely to start with Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala up-front for the Bianconeri’s first Serie A fixture of the season.
Dybala came on at half-time in the Espanyol game and had a huge impact, creating the first goal and scoring a last-minute equaliser.
Higuain scored 36 goals in 35 Serie A games last season, but it appears he may have to wait for his first competitive start for the Old Lady.
