A flagship player of Juventus has just been shown the door of the exit by its leaders.

Juventus have just started preparing for the new season, like most of the big European clubs. A recovery that took place without one of the major players in the squad.

Allegri cuts to the quick

To everyone’s surprise, defender Leonardo Bonucci has been told that he no longer has a place in the first team. The international rear azzurro may be part of the furniture on the Turin side, he is no longer part of the coach’s plans. He was thus invited to find a new club by the end of the summer transfer window.

Bonucci will therefore not tour the United States with the rest of the team. And it is not even certain that he would one day put on the bianconera tunic. He is not the only one in this case since the American Weston McKennie, back from a loan to Leeds, has also been asked to empty his locker and look for a new destination.

Juventus executive kicked out

If McKennie’s dismissal is not really surprising, Bonucci’s is really a sensation. With 502 matches played in the black and white jersey, he is the 6e most capped player in the history of Juventus. Last season again, he was aligned 26 times by Massimiliano Allegri.
