Juan Eduardo Esnaider's future with Juventus is changing: according to Tuttosport, Carlo Ancelotti considers the Argentinian an important player who will come in handy just as Michele Padovano did in 1995-97 off the bench. Saturday, Esnaider returned to Turin from Turku, where he was operated. He will start rehab next week and will leave for Argentina in a month time.
Juventus has already sold 10,000 tickets for Sunday's match against Milan: 3,000 went to Milan supporters amd 7,500 were sold through the Lotto outlets. A crowd of 60,000 is expected.
Paolo Montero is doubtful due to a form of sciatica that bothers him. Igor Tudor and Alessandro Birindelli are ready to replace him, since Ciro Ferrara will already play instead of Mark Iuliano, who was suspended for 3 games.
Thierry Henry has suffered a hip bruise against Salernitana and also has sciatica, so, since Alessio Tacchinardi will replace Edgar Davids, Antonio Conte, Angelo Di Livio, Simone Perrotta, and Jocelyn Blanchard will fight for two spots. Either Daniel Fonseca or Amoruso will partner Filippo Inzaghi against Milan.
