Juventus have decided to send Nicolò Rovella home early from their pre-season tour of the USA after the midfielder picked up an injury.
He was not going to be fit in time to face Milan in Friday’s match in Los Angeles anyway.
According to Tuttosport, the club’s medical staff considered it best for his recovery process to be sent back to Italy early so he could continue treatment at the Continassa centre.
It is a muscular issue that he picked up in training with Max Allegri’s squad.
The 21-year-old has spent the last two seasons on loan at Genoa and Monza, so it is not yet guaranteed he will remain in Turin for the current campaign.
