Paul Pogba and Dusan Vlahovic scored one goal each in Juventus‘ 5-0 win over Alessandria on Wednesday morning.

The Serie A giants met the Serie C side for a friendly encounter behind closed doors at Continassa this morning.

Juventus won 5-0, seeing Pogba and Vlahovic get their names on the scoresheet. As reported by Calciomercato.com, the Frenchman played as an attacking midfielder behind Vlahovic in a 3-5-2 formation.

Nicolò Fagioli also found the net against Alessandria, while Daniele Rugani scored a brace in the first half. Juventus will make their Serie A season debut in an away game at Udinese this coming Sunday.

Pogba didn’t train with the rest of the team during the pre-season and, despite his goal against Alessandria, it’s unsure he will be called up for the first game of the campaign at the Dacia Arena over the weekend.

Vlahovic also dealt with physical issues during the pre-season but is expected to be available when Juventus visit Udinese on Sunday.
