Juventus Sees Positive Signs as Key Players Return to Training
Juventus welcomed Francisco Conceicao back to full training and hopes for the recovery of Nico Gonzalez during the upcoming international break, while Kenan Yildiz also approaches a return. The team has been struggling as they enter November, dealing with a significantly reduced squad due to injuries impacting their Serie A and Europa League campaigns.
Head coach Luciano Spalletti has had to alter his tactical approach frequently, coping with the absence of approximately ten players, particularly in the attacking positions.
Juventus Treatment Room Emptying Out
The latest update from Sky Sport Italia indicates that Francisco Conceicao has resumed full training after being out for over three weeks due to a shoulder dislocation. The Portuguese midfielder aims to be ready for the first Serie A match after the break against Venezia on Sunday, November 22.
Nico Gonzalez, who suffered a calf strain in late October, is also nearing a return to full training. Andrea Cambiaso is expected to be back in action following the international duty as well.
Kenan Yildiz, who underwent surgery for a stress fracture in his foot in late August, may not be available until December, prolonging Juventus’ challenges.
Despite these setbacks, the recovery of key players could provide Spalletti with more options in the attacking lineup, potentially leading the club to reassess their needs for January signings. Meanwhile, players like Pierre Kalulu, Khephren Thuram, Manuel Locatelli, Kamil Grabara, and Arkadiusz Milik continue to remain on the sidelines.
