Vidal is Juventus doubt

By Football Italia staff

Arturo Vidal is a doubt for Juventus’ Champions League clash with Monaco after being struck down with tonsilitis.

The Chilean midfielder gave the Bianconeri a 1-0 advantage to take into the second leg of their quarter-final, scoring the only goal in a 1-0 win at Juventus Stadium.

However, SportMediaset is now reporting that 27-year-old is battling acute tonsilitis, and will be evaluated by the club’s medical staff tomorrow.

Acute tonsilitis is the most extreme form of the infection, where the tonsils become so swollen that it is difficult to take on foods or liquids.

Vidal has already been hospitalised with tonsilitis this season, missing a trip to Verona in January.
