There is trouble brewing in the Torino camp ahead of today’s Derby della Mole against Juventus, as Nemanja Radonjic has been frozen out by coach Ivan Juric.
It kicks off at the Allianz Juventus Stadium at 17.00 UK time (16.00 GMT).

Juric named his squad going into the big match against their city rivals and has to do without the injured Alessandro Buongiorno, Brandon Soppy, Koffi Djidji and Mergim Vojvoda.
Sazonov is also expected to be only fit for the bench due to the injury he sustained against Hellas Verona, so Adrien Tameze could be dropped back into defence.
However, the surprising news is that Radonjic is not even in the squad and it is confirmed to be a decision by the coach rather than any fitness issue.
Radonjic had scored three goals in seven Serie A games this season for the Granata, effectively sealing their only two victories against Genoa and Salernitana.
Juric had hinted there were problems in his press conference yesterday and it seems the warning was not heeded.
“I don’t know if he will play… If he turns up and acts arrogant, or not. He did not do well against Roma, but he sacrificed himself and fought to win back balls. I hope tomorrow he will get back to what he can do and make the difference.”
Torino squad: Gemello, Milinkovic-Savic, Popa; N’Guessan, Rodriguez, Sazonov, Schuurs, Zima; Antolini, Bellanova, Gineitis, Ilic, Lazaro, Linetty, Ricci, Tameze, Vojvoda; Karamoh, Pellegri, Sanabria, Seck, Vlasic, Duvan Zapata
