West Ham: Ogbonna gets Italy call-up to replace Chiellini
“Chiellini is injured, I don’t think he will manage to play for Italy, I think he will remain with us for the next two weeks. We’ll have time to recover in physical and psychological terms during the national team break”, Allegri told Sky Sport.
Italy are due to play two friendly games against England and Argentina during the break and Angelo Ogbonna has been included in the squad in place of his former Juventus team-mates.
The physical conditions of Chiellini will be monitored in the coming days but Juventus hope the experienced centre-back will recover in time to face both AC Milan and Real Madrid after the international break.
