The Bianconeri may be without McKennie, too, as reports the USMNT star was missing from training on Monday morning. The report claims that McKennie is facing physical difficulties, though the details are unknown. While it isn't believed to be a major issue, there is worry inside the Juventus camp that he won't be fit enough to play against Villa in the Champions League.
AFPDID YOU KNOW?
McKennie was heavily linked with a move to Villa in the summer as Juventus looked to include the USMNT midfielder in a swap deal for Douglas Luiz, however, the move failed to go through as Unai Emery's side ended up signing Amadou Onana, Enzo Barrenechea and Ross Barkley instead to cover their midfield.
WHAT NEXT FOR JUVENTUS?
Motta's side will take on the English side in the Champions League on Wednesday, and it remains to be seen if McKennie will be fit to take to the field at Villa Park.
