Defender of Turin and the Croatian national team Robert Kovac will not appear on the field for about a month due to an injury - the player injured the ligaments in his left knee during training and tests revealed that he will not be able to help his team for three to four weeks.
R. Kovac joined the "Juventus" team this summer after his contract with Munich expired. Although the Croatian was not considered a key player, replacing Lilian Thuram or Fabio Cannavaro in the center of defense, he played quite successfully.
The "Juventus" team will also be without a goalkeeper, who today signed a two-year contract with the club. The 35-year-old veteran has been Gianluigi Buffon's backup in Turin for the past three years, but he lost this position this summer when Christian Abbiati joined the team.
Meanwhile, according to the German press, Turin's target "Bayern" and French national team defender Willy Sagnol changed his mind and decided to stay in Bavaria. Although recently Munich club president Karl-Heinz Rummenigge claimed to have lost a player whose contract expires next summer, soon the legendary German national team player stated that he will do everything to keep the Frenchman in the team, also comparing "Juventus" working methods to a "mafia".
