Vlahovic nears return from injury as Juventus push for Champions League qualification

Sky Sport Italia reports that Juventus star Dusan Vlahovic will return to group training in the coming days and could be called up for a home game against Pisa next weekend.

Vlahovic will resume group training in the coming days, reports Sky Sport Italia.

When will Vlahovic return to action for Juventus?

The striker could even be called up for a Serie A match against Pisa on March 7, but he’d only start from the bench.

The Juventus star has been sidelined since the end of November, when he suffered a high-degree adductor injury, which forced him to undergo surgery.

His return will boost Luciano Spalletti’s options up front, as Jonathan David has been inconsistent up front for the Old Lady, while Lois Openda was rarely a starter after Vlahovic’s injury.

Following a 3-3 draw against Roma on Sunday, Juventus sit 6th in the Serie A table, four points below the Giallorossi in fourth.

Vlahovic, 26, has scored six goals and provided two assists in 17 appearances across all competitions this season.

His future at the club is also a matter of debate as his contract at the Allianz Stadium runs out at the end of the season.
