Barzagli closer to Juventus return
By Football Italia staff

Andrea Barzagli is inching closer to a Juventus return, playing 75 minutes for the club’s youth team today.

The Italian international defender has not played a single minute for the Bianconeri this term as he struggles with an achilles injury.

It has been suggested that the 33-year-old could make his first appearance of the season at Cesena on Sunday, and the club’s official website reports that the centre-back played 75 minutes of a Primavera win over Ivrea at Vinovo.

“Andrea Barzagli took an important step towards making his full first-team comeback by getting 75 minutes of game time under his belt in this afternoon’s 2-0 Primavera friendly victory over Ivrea,” the Bianconeri announced on their official website.

“The defender’s progress was monitored on the sidelines by Massimiliano Allegri, Fabio Paratici, Pavel Nedved, Gianluca Pessotto and Stefano Braghin.

“Also present to lend support to their team-mate were Leonardo Bonucci, Giorgio Chiellini, Simone Pepe and Andrea Pirlo.

“Back on the pitch, the defender put in an assured display during his 75 minutes alongside Fabio Grosso’s youngsters, making a series of important interceptions and marshalling the backline with customary composure.”

okay it's time we have a real chat about an issue that has been plaguing our players for past 5-6 seasons.

often when these players get serios injuries that require surgery or being sidelined for extended periords of time, they never come back the same again.

Quagliarella.

But it's not a Juve thing, sever injuries do that to players everywhere.
