Di Gregorio: Juventus keeper under pressure having conceded 7 goals in 2 games

Several Italian media outlets in recent days discussed the goalkeeper’s performances over the last two games, which saw Juventus concede seven times.

Clearly, not all of those were Di Gregorio’s fault, as highlighted by Gazzetta, but at least two Borussia Dortmund goals raised eyebrows on Tuesday as the Italian conceded at the near post.

Reports over the last few days suggested that Igor Tudor could even change keeper against Verona tomorrow, starting Mattia Perin instead of Di Gregorio.

Di Gregorio’s Juventus salary revealed

According to Gazzetta, however, the Old Lady wants to protect Di Gregorio, who joined the club for €18m last season plus €800,000 agent fees.

The Italian will earn €36.8m before taxes during his four-year stay at the Allianz Stadium.

Juventus conceded seven goals in the last two games, but still avoided defeats, beating Inter 4-3 and drawing 4-4 against Borussia Dortmund.
