Massimiliano Allegri is hopeful Martin Caceres will sign for Juventus in time to feature in Wednesday's Coppa Italia clash with Atalanta.
Caceres, who has played for the Bianconeri in two previous spells, arrived in Turin on Saturday to undergo a medical ahead of a reported loan switch from Lazio.
Allegri confirmed at the weekend that Caceres would be looked at as a replacement for Medhi Benatia, who has since completed a move to Al-Duhail, and the Uruguay international could be involved right away.
The Juve coach announced on Tuesday that Giorgio Chiellini, Daniele Rugani and Joao Cancelo will all start against Atalanta, with the left-back role still to be decided.
