Juventus have been enduring woeful times with injuries this season, but they’re expecting a significant boost in the coming days.
Juventus Squad Pared Down to the Bones
Luciano Spalletti won’t be able to rely on key stars like Kenan Yildiz, Manuel Locatelli, and Khephren Thuram, who will remain on the sidelines. However, others should become available after the Serie A restart, either as early as this weekend’s trip to Cagliari or next week’s big clash against Lazio at the Allianz Stadium.
Andrea Cambiaso & Juan Cabal Back for Lazio Game
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport (via La Lazio Siamo Noi), Juventus will soon regain their two left-backs, Andrea Cambiaso and Juan Cabal, who have been missing since the start of the season. Former Roma right-back Zeki Celik has been shifted to the left flank, but Spalletti will be able to count on a natural left-back.

Cambiaso and Cabal could receive call-ups for the Sardinian trip, and they will certainly be fit for the game against Lazio.
Kerim Alajbegovic & Randal Kolo Muani Should Also Return
Kerim Alajbegovic picked up a knock while representing Bosnia. The 19-year-old attacking midfielder returned to Turin to undergo clinical tests, but early signs suggest his injury isn’t serious, so he should be ready in time for the Lazio showdown. The same goes for Randal Kolo Muani, who had minor surgery during the international break, and is expected to be back in the coming days.
Juventus Injury List
On the other hand, Yildiz, Thuram, Locatelli, Jeff Ekhator, and Jeremie Boga remain longtime absentees, while backup goalkeeper Kamil Grabara won’t return until the latter stages of the season after suffering an ACL tear.
