Giorgio Chiellini was always meant to return to the Juventus camp after one Italy game and did not pick up an injury, it’s reported.

The veteran started the 2-0 win over Northern Ireland on Thursday, but did not make the trip to Sofia for tomorrow’s World Cup qualifier with Bulgaria.

While Domenico Berardi and Francesco Caputo also returned to Sassuolo due to injuries, the Chiellini situation is different.

While Domenico Berardi and Francesco Caputo also returned to Sassuolo due to injuries, the Chiellini situation is different.

According to multiple reports, the deal was always to have Chiellini just for the first game, as he is not fit enough to play twice in three days.

The squad rotation was planned, so he simply went back to Turin in order to resume training with Juventus.
