Juventus Raises Alarm Bells Again Due to Injuries

  • After a good start in Serie A, the Italian club has an infirmary that complicates Luciano Spalletti's plans.

A promising start that coexists with concern


Juventus started Serie A with two wins, a 0-1 against Frosinone and a 2-0 against Parma, results that fuel the expectation of improving on last season's sixth place. However, the good start coexists with a problem that is already causing concern in Turin, the number of players on the injured list continues to grow, forcing Luciano Spalletti to adjust his plans



Injuries that complicate the team's lineup

Kenan Yildiz suffered a fracture in the fifth metatarsal of his left foot on August 23 against Frosinone. He underwent surgery and will be out for several months, a significant absence for the Turkish attacking midfielder. Khéphren Thuram is also out, having been dealing with knee discomfort since the end of last season. Conservative treatment didn't work, and he will undergo surgery in Lyon. The arthroscopy could leave him out of action for up to four months, directly affecting the midfield



Reinforcements arrive, but they can't help right away


At the close of the transfer window, Juventus signed Pape Matar Sarr from Tottenham to reinforce the midfield. But the Senegalese player won't be able to cover for Thuram's absence immediately either, due to muscle problems that are keeping him out of action
