Bernardeschi doubt for Supercoppa?
By Football Italia staff
There’s confusion over Federico Bernardeschi’s presence for the Supercoppa Italiana, as Juventus don’t appear to have registered him with the Lega Serie A.
The Bianconeri announced the signing of the Italian international on July 24, in a deal worth €40m with Fiorentina.
However, neither he nor fellow new signing Wojciech Szczesny appear on the list of those registered by Juve on the Lega Serie A’s website.
Szczesny is injured so wouldn’t play in Sunday’s game in any case, but if Bernardeschi isn’t registered with the Lega he wouldn’t be able to feature.
It’s not clear if this is simply an oversight or whether his contract has indeed not yet been deposited.
Coach Massimiliano Allegri will name his squad for the match tomorrow, so it remains to be seen whether the 23-year-old will be included
