Monday, June 9 marks the start of an important week for Juventus as the team prepares to travel to the United States for the FIFA Club World Cup. Juventus will make their debut in the tournament on the night of June 19 (Italian time), facing the Emirati club Al-Ain under the guidance of coach Igor Tudor.
IlBianconero report how, In preparation for this international competition, Tudor will have several players returning from loan spells at his disposal. Among them is Daniele Rugani, who has already returned to Turin after his loan at Ajax. Also expected at Continassa today is Filip Kostic, who spent the past season on loan at Fenerbahce in Turkey.
Kostic is scheduled to arrive at Continassa on the morning of June 9, where he will begin training under Tudor to get ready for the Club World Cup and the imminent departure to the United States. Like Rugani, after completing his loan at Fenerbahce, Kostic has returned to his parent club Juventus. He will participate in the prestigious tournament with Juventus before discussions about his future take place.
Kostic’s return comes after a season in which he became an important figure for Fenerbahce, although the Turkish club decided not to exercise the option to buy him permanently. The Serbian winger, who has one year left on his Juventus contract, expressed his fondness for Fenerbahce and hopes to return there someday. For now, he will focus on contributing to Juventus’ campaign at the Club World Cup and proving his value to the team.
