How Juventus could line up against Barcelona

Aiming to put a terrible 2022-23 campaign behind them, Juventus embark on their pre-season trip to the United States this week, first meeting Barcelona on Saturday.

Juve trailed in seventh in the final Serie A standings, so established names have begun to depart: Juan Cuadrado and Angel Di Maria have already left the club this summer.

Captain and defensive stalwart Leonardo Bonucci is also out of favour and could soon be moving on, but Arkadiusz Milik has made his loan move from Marseille permanent and should feature up front.

The Poland striker may be supported from out wide by USA winger Tim Weah, who proved his credentials to start in several spots along either flank before joining the Bianconeri from Lille.

Now returning to the country he represents at international level, the son of former AC Milan star George Weah is set to step into Cuadrado's boots on the right side of a flexible 3-5-2 formation.

The subject of persistent transfer speculation, Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic could still be involved against Barcelona, but Juve coach Max Allegri will be without two men due to injury: following his breakthrough season last term, midfielder Nicolo Fagioli misses out with a collarbone injury, while Moise Kean has been troubled by a flexor issue.

The latter's absence - and doubts over Vlahovic's motivation - could see Milik and Federico Chiesa paired up front this weekend, though Argentinian starlet Matias Soule has sometimes operated in a role supporting a lone striker.

Juventus possible starting lineup: Perin; Danilo, Bremer, Gatti; Weah, Miretti, Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic; Chiesa, Milik
