Chile coach Jorge Sampaoli says he won't be releasing Arturo Vidal early to Juventus.
Sampaoli revealed last week a knee strain for his star midfielder.
"Vidal is fine, his form will be shown by how long he spends on the field," said Sampaoli.
"There is constant dialogue with Juventus, nobody forced us to do anything or put pressure on us, and if they had then our response would've been negative.
"Clubs can ask what they want, but at the end of the day the decision is ours. We need Arturo here with us."
