Kwadwo Asamoah ready to play as left-back for Juventus this season
here is no argument when it comes to where Kwadwo
Asamoah is best deployed.

The thing is, ever since joining Juventus two
summers ago,

Asamoah has rarely played in his more natural
central midfield position — the same spot where
he made his name at Udinese.

But as time has gone on, Asamoah has developed
into one heck of a wingback, becoming one of the
more consistent performers for Antonio Conte’s
102-point Juventus last season.

That has spurned talk of where he might fit in
case Conte went with a four-man defense like folks
in the Italian press had been suggesting for
months.

And even with Max Allegri now running the show,
the possibility of a four-man defense being used
still remains.

What does Asamoah think of potentially being a
left back this season? Well, he got asked about it
on Friday.

“In these first few friendlies we have played
with the formation we used last year, but in case
Allegri decides to change, for me it would be no
problem to adapt as I did two years ago when I
arrived at Juve. From an internal midfielder I
switched out to the wing. No problem then? I
repeat, no problem, ever. I played in that role in
Udine.”
