Juventus defender Danilo faces a significant risk of being absent from the upcoming Coppa Italia final against Atalanta due to an injury setback.

The Bianconeri managed to secure a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Daniele De Rossi’s Roma at the Stadio Olimpico last Sunday, marking yet another disappointing outcome for Massimiliano Allegri and his squad. With just two victories in their last 14 consecutive league matches, Juventus is enduring a challenging period.

However, Juventus has an opportunity to inject some positivity into the Piedmont capital later this month as they prepare to clash with Atalanta in the Coppa Italia final on May 15. The last time the Bianconeri clinched the trophy was during the 2020-21 campaign when they triumphed over Gian Piero Gasperini’s side in the final.

Following the draw with Roma, Juventus confirmed that Danilo underwent a series of medical examinations, revealing a hamstring injury that will sideline him for the upcoming match against Salernitana.

Now, Juventus is diligently working to ensure the 32-year-old defender’s availability for the crucial Coppa Italia final against Atalanta, which stands as their most pivotal fixture of the season.
