A. Pirlo: "We need McKennie's contribution" © SIPA

"Juventus" strategist Andrea Pirlo believes that during this tense period, Weston McKennie is particularly needed by the team. The team is currently 10 points behind in the "Serie A" championship race, but considering the number of games played, the gap could be reduced to seven. At the moment, several key players of the main team have dropped out of the Juventus ranks. Alvaro Morata, Paulo Dybala, Arthur, and other important footballers will not help the Italian champions in the fight for the title in the near future. "McKennie is a good player, he always has motivation for matches. And in this tense period, we need his contribution," said A. Pirlo. McKennie should also start in Tuesday's "Serie A" match against "Spezia" football players."
