This season, Juventus started the campaign with a host of new players. But while some struggle to make an impact for various reasons, Gleison Bremer has featured more than any other player at the club so far this season.
The Brazilian has always been present in Max Allegri’s formation, starting all seven Serie A games, as well as the two Champions League games against Paris Saint Germain and Benfica.
However, it appears that the defender has been leading the baseline despite taking a slight hit.
As reported by the Gazzetta dello Sport through JuventusNews24, Bremer suffers from discomfort in his left knee that has probably affected his performance on the pitch.
The 25-year-old has received his first call-up to the Brazilian national team and deservedly so.
However, Juventus are concerned about his physical condition. The club now hopes that his condition will not worsen during his international duty.

This report raises additional questions regarding the work of the medical staff and the club in general.
For example, Angel Di Maria aggravated his injury after a premature return to action against Fiorentina, and now, the source claims Bremer was put at risk rather than applying precautionary measures.
Without a doubt, the services of the Brazilian have been essential for the club after the departures of Giorgio Chiellini and Matthijs de Ligt, but this type of risk is not common in a club of the stature of Juventus.
