Weston McKennie was previously confined to self-isolation in his home, but the 22-year-old recently received a negative COVID-19 test result and will soon rejoin his teammates in training, as per the protocols in Italy.
McKennie has missed just one game for Juve — last weekend’s 1-1 draw away to Crotone — though it remains to be seen whether or not he will feature in manager Andrea Pirlo’s plans for Sunday’s clash with Hellas Verona.
