Kalulu back in full Juventus training after a month out | OneFootball

Pierre Kalulu is back in the Juventus squad for full training and could feature against Hellas Verona on Monday.

It kicks off at the Allianz Juventus Stadium on Monday at 19.45 GMT.

The Bianconeri have been struggling with an injury crisis in recent weeks, especially when it comes to the defence.

Along with long-term absentees Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal, they also lost Nicolò Savona and January signing Renato Veiga.

Kalulu had been out of action for over a month after sustaining a lesion to a tendon in the right thigh against Benfica, but today took part in the full training session along with his teammates.

The former Milan man is expected to be at least on the bench for the next Serie A match against Verona.

He had made 29 appearances in all competition this season, also scoring a goal.

Meanwhile, coach Thiago Motta is reportedly sticking with his ‘soft’ approach to the players, keeping planned rest days and not imposing a training retreat, even after criticising their attitude in the Coppa Italia elimination at the hands of Empoli.
