Manuel Akanji will make his Inter Milan debut in a mouth-watering clash against Juventus, taking on the formidable Bremer.
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, this showdown will be among the key subplots of Saturday’s fixture.
Signed from Manchester City on a season-long loan, Manuel Akanji arrives at San Siro with huge expectations.
Indeed, the 30-year-old is one of Europe’s elite defenders, with Cristian Chivu expecting him to shore up Inter’s defensive woes.
Akanji’s first-ever appearance in Serie A can hardly be more challenging.
On the opposite side, there will be Juventus and Gleison Bremer.
Widely considered one of the world’s best center-backs, Bremer has been outstanding for the Bianconeri.
Furthermore, he has returned from a lengthy spell on the sidelines in formidable form.
Indeed, the Brazilian helped Juventus keep a clean sheet in both league matches before the international break.
Moreover, Igor Tudor’s men have not conceded in their last eight top-flight outings with Bremer in the starting XI.
