Serie A: Troost-Ekong fired up for Juventus test

William Troost-Ekong will face his biggest test since linking up with Salernitana when the Garnets host Juventus at the Stadio Arechi, Salerno on Tuesday night.

Troost-Ekong made the switch to Salernitana from Sky Bet Championship club, Watford last month.

The centre-back enjoyed a winning start to his time at the club, starring in the 2-1 win at Leece last week.

It was Davide Nicola’s side’s first win in Serie A since last November.

Troost-Ekong is expected to play a key role against the highly-experienced Juventus attackers.

Salernitana currently occupy 16th position on the Serie A table with 21 points from 20 games.

A win against the Old Lady will no doubt boost survival hopes.
