Kolo Muani, without the brace: Spalletti explains his revival
Spalletti says removing the hand brace has freed Randal Kolo Muani in duels, after the 2-2 draw with Fiorentina and his assist for Woltemade.
Juventus forward Randal Kolo Muani is enjoying a good run, and Luciano Spalletti has a concrete explanation: the brace on his hand has been removed. The coach spoke after the 2-2 draw with Fiorentina on 8 November, a match in which the Frenchman set up Woltemade's equaliser. According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Spalletti admitted that in the early games the player seemed wary of challenges, with three fingers immobilised and stitches still in place. He can now compete for the ball with more freedom.
The coach also highlights his versatility, as he can play on the wing or in central defence. This season he has 15 appearances, 4 goals and 4 assists, and the challenge now is keeping this level so the physical recovery turns into consistency.
