According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Boga will be sidelined for 5 to 6 weeks, missing at least 7 matches for Juventus.

Not just Locatelli. Juventus midfielder Locatelli underwent surgery on the lateral meniscus of his right knee, and the club stated that his return to action will take considerable time, not expected before January or February next year. Boga's absence will be shorter; after medical examinations at Juventus' medical center, he was diagnosed with a moderate biceps femoris strain on his left thigh. The club has scheduled a follow-up examination in two weeks to determine recovery timelines with greater precision.

However, Boga's absence is expected to last approximately five to six weeks. If this assessment is confirmed, he is projected to return in mid-to-late October. Juventus will not risk his early return, especially during a congested fixture period; the club will manage this muscle injury cautiously.

International break works in Juventus' favor.

At least regarding the fixture list, there is some relief. After Juventus' match against Atalanta on September 20, Serie A will pause for international matches, and the Bianconeri will not return to action until October 11, away to Cagliari. Such an unusually long break means Boga will miss nearly three weeks fewer of league play. The Europa League schedule also provides breathing room: after Juventus' home match against Nantes on September 17, the team's next European fixture will be an away trip to Celta on October 15. Therefore, the former Sassuolo player will likely miss only two European matches.

Matches Boga is expected to miss

September 13: Sassuolo vs. Juventus - Serie A

September 17: Juventus vs. Nantes - Europa League

September 20: Juventus vs. Atalanta - Serie A

October 11: Cagliari vs. Juventus - Serie A

October 15: Celta vs. Juventus - Europa League

October 18: Juventus vs. Lazio - Serie A

October 22: Juventus vs. Rennes - Europa League (at risk)

Therefore, the most realistic return target for Boga is Lecce vs. Juventus on October 25, with final timelines dependent on follow-up examinations in the coming weeks.
