AS Roma and Juventus manage key player injuries
Italian football clubs AS Roma and Juventus are managing several key player injuries.
At AS Roma, manager Gian Piero Gasperini addressed concerns regarding Paulo Dybala’s fitness. Following reports of muscle fatigue, Dybala has returned to full training with the group, easing fears ahead of the match against Atalanta. Other players, including Ndicka and Pellegrini, are also being monitored for recovery.
Juventus faces significant squad depth challenges. Midfielder Khephren Thuram underwent successful chondroplasty surgery on his right knee in Lyon. While the operation was successful, reports indicate he could be sidelined for several months, with some estimates suggesting a return as late as early 2027. Additionally, defender Juan Cabal has been diagnosed with a low-grade injury to his left semimembranosus muscle, which is expected to keep him out of action for approximately four weeks. The club is also monitoring the fitness of Cambiaso, McKennie, and Zhegrova ahead of their upcoming fixture against Milan.
