Juventus had a morning training session today consisting of an intense warm-up based on handball and technical exercises.
Olof Mellberg was back to training with the group, just like Vincenzo Iaquinta. The attacker recovered from the muscle problem and could be available for call-up for the match against Fiorentina if the results are positive.
Buffon and Manninger trained regularly. Buffon yesterday trained in the gym and his conditions seemed to be good already. Today the goalkeeper worked on the field and if tomorrow the results will be good and no respiratory problems are identified then he will be available for Saturday’s match. Manninger is recovering from the blow to the shinbone suffered during the match against Lazio. The Austrian goalkeeper also underwent a complete session of training today and work will be more intense tomorrow also making him available for Saturday. Tiago has recovered from the influenza attack he suffered in the last few days. The Portuguese midfielder today worked in the gym and will return to working with the group tomorrow.
Chiellini is undergoing a specific training programme as a precaution. Once he gets the go-ahead by the medical staff he will be able to make a quick return. The defender will tomorrow undergo a bio-mechanical test in Perugia with Professor Cerulli. If on Saturday progress is registered he will be able to make a quick return.
Camoranesi trained on the field without any problems but it is not yet possible to foresee when he will return.
Good news for Jonathan Zebina who after the physiotherapy in Florence returned in good condition. The defender began working on the field and the programme will be progressively intensified to allow the quick return to the field.
