Juventus have confirmed that manager Maurizio Sarri has been diagnosed with pneumonia. Sarri had made it to Juventus' training ground today but was unable to take training.
Last week, the 60-year-old was suffering from flu and the symptoms failed to subside, causing him to miss Juve's friendly win over Triestina.
And on Monday at the club's training complex, tests confirmed that Sarri, who left Chelsea earlier this summer, had pneumonia.
A club statement read: “Maurizio Sarri, after having observed rest over the weekend, was at the JTC Continassa today (yesterday) 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.
“In the late afternoon, he underwent further tests that confirmed he has pneumonia, for which specific therapy has been prescribed.
“The coach has authorised the club to communicate his state of health.”
