juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri was not impressed when new strikerGonzalo Higuain reported for pre-season training, and he's ordered the player to undertake a gruelling fitness regime in order to be fit for the start of the Serie A campaign.
Pincella Matteo, a nutritionist who has worked for the Turin club since 2012, will be responsible for getting the former Napoli man in shape and has tailored a specific plan for the striker.
With the added pressure of a record fee on his shoulders, the Argentine knows he has to justify the faith that has been placed in him, and the first measure the striker has taken is to turn down the call from his country for vital World Cup 2018 qualifiers in September.
Allegri chose to not speak publicly on the matter but when he was asked directly about it after his teams friendly against Espanyol, he replied diplomatically, "all those who started the preseason later will gradually be coming to their best level."
