Mario Mandzukic is not training with his Juventus team-mates as per an agreement with the club, manager Maurizio Sarri has announced as he spoke on Friday ahead of Juventus’ game with Bologna in Serie A at the weekend.

Juventus sit top of Serie A, hoping to continue their unbeaten run with a visit from Sinisa Mihajlovic’s squad – who are winless in their last four games.

The hosts have won 12 of the last 13 meetings with the north Italian side – and have also kept nine clean sheets in those encounters.
