Juventus completed a late comeback away to Lazio on Sunday evening but Miralem Pjanic was missing and the Bosnian is already desperate to return.

Pjanic was struggling with a calf problem during the week and was left out of the squad by coach Massimiliano Allegri.

“When you’re away from the field you suffer twice,” Pjanic said, celebrating the win.

“The victory helps to distract me from my desire to return, but only for a moment.

“Good job guys.”

Pjanic has played 25 times across four competitions for the Old Lady this season and his importance became all the more evident in his absence on Sunday.

In his 25 appearances, he has contributed three goals as well as a further three assists.
