Juventus team news: Woltemade trains with group as McKennie sits out

Juventus team news: Woltemade trains with group as McKennie sits out Nick Woltemade has taken another step towards making his Juventus debut after training with his new teammates for the first time ahead of Sunday’s Serie A clash with Milan. The Germany international completed the entire session with the group at Continassa on Friday, giving head coach Luciano Spalletti a positive indication regarding his physical condition, as per TuttoSport . Woltemade only arrived in Turin during the summer transfer window, meaning the imposing forward is still adapting to his new surroundings and Spalletti’s tactical demands. His return to full team training leaves Juventus with another option in attack for one of the biggest fixtures of the opening weeks of the season.

The American midfielder is managing a muscular fatigue problem and remains a doubt for the trip to face Milan. Andrea Cambiaso also continued his personalised recovery programme following an ankle sprain, leaving his involvement on Sunday in serious doubt. Pape Matar Sarr is the third player working away from the group as he continues his recovery from the physical issue he was carrying before completing his move to Turin.

His availability provides Spalletti with another attacking option, although his future had remained the subject of transfer speculation before the window closed. Juventus now have one final training session before the Milan game, with Spalletti set to assess the remaining fitness doubts before finalising his squad and starting XI. Woltemade’s progress will be particularly intriguing, as the German could now be in contention to make his first appearance in the Bianconeri shirt.
