Juventus manager, Massimiliano Allegri has confirmed that striker, Mario Mandzukic will be available for selection during the Champions League clash with Manchester United on Wednesday night.
Juventus have been hit with a series of injury issues ahead of the Champions League game, with attacking trio: Douglas Costa, Blaise Matuidi and Mandzukic, constituting doubts for the game.
There was also concerns about midfielder Miralem Pjanic’s fitness, but Allegri now has his influential forward, Mandzukic to call upon.
“We might go with (Juan) Cuadrado, (Paulo) Dybala and (Cristiano) Ronaldo tomorrow, but I still have to make a decision on that,” Metro UK quoted Allegri as saying.
“We’ll need to play better than we did in Manchester because United are always a threat. We must be completely focused as there’s a lot on the line.”
Allegri did confirm that Costa would miss out of the clash, but Federico Bernardeschi, Emre Can, and Moise Kea are also injured.
