Juventus defender Gatti trains separately ahead of Atalanta clash | OneFootball

Juventus defender Federico Gatti reportedly trained separately from the rest of the group today, three days before a key Serie A game against Atalanta.

Romeo Agresti reports Juventus and Italy defender Gatti trained separately at Continassa this morning due to slight muscle fatigue.

The 26-year-old centre-back has made 26 consecutive appearances as a starter.

Agresti reports that Chelsea loanee Renato Veiga also trained separately from the rest of the team in the morning.

Juventus are preparing for a crucial Serie A match against third-placed Atalanta on Sunday.

The Bianconeri have won five consecutive Serie A games and are just six points below table leaders Inter.

However, they are yet to secure a Champions League placement, given that fifth-placed Lazio are just two points behind them in the Serie A rankings.

Gatti has made 37 appearances across all competitions this season, scoring one goal and playing 3106 minutes of football.

His contract at the Allianz Stadium runs out in 2028.
