20 November 2014
This week’s edition of Talent Track puts a fresh batch of youngsters under the microscope, all of whom are currently out on co-ownership or loan deals from the Bianconeri.
During the November international break, both Hordur Magnusson and Joel Untersee –on loan at Cesena and FC Vaduz respectively – featured for their national sides.
Twenty-one-year-old Magnusson made his senior debut for Iceland during last week’s 3-1 friendly defeat to Belgium but remained an unused substitute in the 2-1 Euro 2016 qualifier loss to the Czech Republic on Sunday.
Untersee, on the other hand, featured for Switzerland Under-21 against Scotland on Tuesday having also played for the Under-20s against Germany at the weekend.
Elsewhere in Italy, Cristian Pasquato – currently on loan with Serie B outfit Pescara – hit the Delfini’s final goal in their 3-0 league win over Frosinone on Sunday.
The 25-year-old, who had the remaining 50 per cent of his transfer rights purchased by Juventus from Udinese in June 2014, finished emphatically from outside the area as Pescara climbed up to twelfth position in the table.
Having risen through the ranks at Ascoli before transferring to the Bianconeri back in 2010, Carlo Ilari was also on the scoresheet for Catanzaro against Lecce in the Lega Pro C.
Appearing off the bench in the 55th minute, the Ancona-born forward halved the deficit midway through the second half as the Aquile del Sud rallied to rescue a 2-2 draw having been two goals down.
Last but certainly not least, everyone at Juventus would like to wish Marcel Buchel, Alberto Masi, Filippo Penna and Fredrik Sorensen all a speedy recovery with the quartet currently out on the sidelines. Get well soon!
