Juventus Named An Unbelievably Strong Bench That Could Challenge For The Serie A Title

The Italian champions had 12 substitutes on the bench and one of those included club legend Gianluigi Buffon, who re-signed with the club this summer.

And defence wasn't an issue either for Juventus as they had Danilo and Merih Demiral alongside marquee summer signing Matthijs de Ligt.

Juventus also had strong reinforcements in midfield through Adrien Rabiot, Emre Can and Rodrigo Bentancur, along with Juan Cuadrado and Federico Bernardeschi providing options for the wings.

That's not to mention Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala, who was linked with Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United this summer, available as striking options.

And fans are blown away by the squad depth that Juventus currently have at their disposal.

Juventus kicked off their title defence with a victory over Parma as club captain Giorgio Chiellini poked the ball in from close range in the first half.

Juventus manager Maurizio Sarri did not attend the match as he receives treatment for pneumonia.

The former Chelsea head coach will not return for his side's clash with Napoli next week at the Allianz Stadium.

Which players should Juventus offload this summer?
