Juventus coach Thiago Motta confirmed that Teun Koopmeiners was taken off at half-time against Monza with an \u2018adductor issue.\u2019<\/p>\n

The former Atalanta star had been in the starting XI as part of the two-man midfield with Manuel Locatelli, a deeper role than he had been using at the start of the season.<\/p>\n

When he was replaced by Khephren Thuram for the second half at the U-Power Stadium in Monza, DAZN reporters asked Thiago Motta for an explanation.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe felt something in his adductor harden. We decided not to risk it,\u201d confirmed the coach.<\/p>\n

Although this is the final game before Christmas, Juventus have a packed fixture list coming up and do not want to risk doing further damage to one of their most valuable players.<\/p>\n

They will host Fiorentina on Sunday December 29, then open the Supercoppa Italiana against Milan in Saudi Arabia on January 3.<\/p>\n

If they win that, then Juve will also play the Supercoppa Final against either Inter or Atalanta a few days later.<\/p>\n

Serie A then resumes with Torino and Atalanta away, then hosting Milan on January 18.<\/p>\n
