Juventus have confirmed manager Maurizio Sarri has been diagnosed with pneumonia, and the tactician is reportedly likely to miss the club's Serie A opener against Parma on Saturday.
Sarri, 60, was said to have been suffering with flu, but a statement released on the official Juventus website said the Italian had contracted pneumonia:
"Maurizio Sarri, after having observed rest over the weekend, was at the JTC Continassa today where he coordinated the work of his staff. Unfortunately, he could not conduct the training on the field due to the persistence of his flu, which struck him over the course of last week.
