Juventus are still uncertain over whether Patrice Evra will leave the club in the transfer window, head coach Massimiliano Allegri has said.
The 35-year-old full-back was left out of the 3-0 Serie A win over Bologna on Sunday as he is considering his future with the champions.
"Evra is in the same situation as he was two days ago," he told a news conference. "We don't know what will happen. He was clear and we were with him. He has taken some time to decide whether to stay or not."
"I don't expect anything from the market," he said. "It's pointless buying just to make up the numbers."
Juve begin their Coppa Italia defence against Atalanta on Thursday looking to continue their remarkable form in Turin, with Sunday's win setting a new Serie A record of 26 consecutive home victories.
"We'll play with the best available line-up," he said. "There won't be a huge amount of changes. We'll see if Bonucci will be able to make the bench because [Giorgio] Chiellini is suspended.
"[Paulo] Dybala needs to play and Pjaca for sure will get some time. We're all excited about his return - he'll be like a new signing this month.
"[Tomas] Rincon could start but [Stefano] Sturaro is ill, he's a doubt. [Stephan] Lichtsteiner and [Kwadwo] Asamoah will definitely play."
Asked for his views on Roma boss Luciano Spalletti's claim that he could take over at Juve one day, Allegri said: "He's right, we're professionals. The important thing is to work with seriousness and respect.
"But I'm fine at Juventus. We'll see what happens in the future."
