Danilo - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Exiled from the squad Danilo "won't be involved in matches because he's likely to leave," coach Thiago Motta announced.

Impact Danilo hasn't been a starter but has been deployed frequently due to his versatility and lack of alternatives. He has entered the final six months of his contract and could depart in January. Juventus will be very thin defensively until they add some men, especially in the middle behind Pierre Kalulu and Federico Gatti.

Fit for Fiorentina game Danilo (ankle) has recovered ahead of Sunday's clash with Fiorentina, coach Thiago Motta announced.

Impact Danilo will return after missing the last game and will provide depth in multiple defensive roles.

He has notched 11 tackles (six won), four interceptions and five clearances in his last five appearances, providing one assist and contributing to one clean sheet.

Unavailable Sunday Danilo (ankle) will not join the team for Sunday's game versus Monza, Juventus announced.

Questionable for Monza bout Danilo has been called up for Sunday's match versus Monza but will be evaluated on game day due to a slight ankle sprain, Juventus announced.

Impact Danilo won't travel with the rest of the squad on the eve of the game to be further assessed by the medical staff.

Credited with assist in draw Danilo assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Bologna.

Impact Danilo isn't known for his attacking runs -- at least not anymore -- but he turned back the clock Saturday. A precise run into the opposing box allowed him to set up Teun Koopmeiners's goal. This was Danilo's first assist of the season, but considering that he spends more time as a center-back than a right-back of late, he's not likely to contribute too much in the attacking third going forward.

He has recorded five tackles (three won), four interceptions, 10 clearances and three blocks in the last four matches (two starts), with no clean sheets.

Questionable for Verona game Danilo was severely limited in training Saturday due to a left heel contusion, La Gazzetta dello Sport informed.

Impact Danilo will be re-assessed in the next two days but risks missing out altogether or at least beginning on the bench for the second consecutive game. He was a safe bet to start due to Timothy Weah's injury, but the coach will have to turn to Nicolo Savona or Pierre Kalulu if he doesn't recover.
