The pressure mounting on Juventus boiled over today as Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Patrick Vieira were involved in a training ground fracas.
The incident occurred during a training match in which the two players were on the same team.
Ibrahimovic was incensed when he passed to Vieira and didn’t receive a return ball.
The Swede berated Vieira loudly and gestured at him angrily before the two squared up and it needed several teammates as well as Coach Fabio Capello to prevent the pair coming to blows.
After several minutes the game continued with Vieira and Ibrahimovic still on the same side.
It remains to be seen whether either player will face disciplinary action.
It is also not the first time that Ibrahimovic has been involved in a training ground feud.
The ex-Ajax marksman is known for his fiery temperament on and off the pitch, while Vieira is no saint himself.
Tensions are running high in the Juventus camp after a run of five games without a win and defeat in the Champions League.
Victory in this Saturday’s clash with Siena is essential for Capello’s men, who now hold a slender three-point lead over nearest challengers Milan.
