Serie A clubs must release their UEFA lists for the second part of the European campaign and according to reports in Italy, Juventus are likely to drop their new signing Alberto Costa.
The Portuguese right-back joined the Old Lady on a permanent transfer from Vitoria Guimaraes in the January transfer window but hasn’t yet made his debut with the Bianconeri.
Juventus and other clubs involved in European competitions must fill their UEFA list for the second part of the campaign by February 6 at midnight.
Juventus UEFA List: One new signing likely to be left out
Clubs are allowed to make three changes from the previous list, so Juventus will have to drop one of their four new signings.
Chelsea loanee Renato Veiga made a convincing debut against Empoli on Sunday, while Randal Kolo Muani has already scored three goals in his first two appearances with Juventus.
Lloyd Kelly joined Juventus on the deadline day, but the Bianconeri lack options at centre-back following injuries to Gleison Bremer and Pierre Kalulu.
Bremer will miss the rest of the season due to a knee injury sustained in October, while Kalulu will be forced to the sidelines for circa three weeks following a recent muscle injury.
As Calciomercato.com explains, Thiago Motta’s need for central defensive options means Alberto Costa will probably be left off the Juventus UEFA list.
The Bianconeri will make room for three new signings by removing Danilo, Nicolò Fagioli and Arthur, who all left the club in the winter transfer window.
Juventus qualified for the Champions League knockout playoff and will be facing PSV this month.
