Ronaldo To Miss Balotelli’s Brescia Debut

By Daily Sports on September 24, 2019

Cristiano Ronaldo will miss Mario Balotelli's debut game for Brescia with the Juventus star ruled out of Tuesday’s match with a slight adductor injury.

“Mario will be there Tuesday,” confirmed coach Eugenio Corini of the Italian striker whose debut was delayed by a four-game suspension for former club Marseille.

But Ronaldo may miss the date with Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri revealing the Portuguese star had picked up a slight adductor problem.

“Cristiano has a little fatigue to the adductors,” said Sarri.

“I don’t want to take any risk with injuries,” he added with two Serie A fixtures this week before hosting Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League on October 1.

“Brescia are a dangerous team. The game is undoubtedly a tricky one and Balotelli’s debut can give them an extra boost.”

Balotelli, 29, has been getting fit during his absence as he looks to impress Italy coach Roberto Mancini and earn a spot in the Euro 2020 team.

“My objective is to play for Italy at the Euros, but my main aim right now is to get into shape as quickly as possible for Brescia,” Balotelli told DAZN.

It will be Balotelli’s third time playing in Italy after Inter Milan and AC Milan. (SuperSport)
