According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Manuel Locatelli has suffered a knee injury, and Juventus risks losing another key player for an extended period.

Manuel Locatelli left the pitch during Juventus' match against AC Milan due to knee pain. The midfielder's discomfort worsened the following morning, and he underwent tests. Juventus is concerned that he may have suffered a meniscus injury and could require surgery. Last week, Kenan Yıldız underwent surgery on his left foot's fifth metatarsal and is expected to be unavailable until late November. Thuram underwent arthroscopic knee surgery in Lyon and is not expected to play until 2026, with the earliest return in January 2027. Locatelli's situation is still being evaluated, and Thiago Motta hopes not to lose another key player.

Juventus had seven players absent from the match against AC Milan. In addition to Kenan Yıldız and Thuram, Weston McKennie, Papu Gomez, Cambasso, Jeff Reine-Adélaïde, and Juan Cabal were unavailable. Juventus hopes three players will return ahead of their away match against Sassuolo on September 13. Cambasso has not yet passed recent tests, but a full return to training within the next few days still appears likely. Weston McKennie's situation requires more caution due to his muscle injury, though his recovery outlook is improving. Papu Gomez has recovered and now needs to rebuild fitness. After a week of training and additional sessions, he is expected to be available on the bench at the Mapei Stadium. The three potentially returning players cannot fully cover Manuel Locatelli's absence, leaving Juventus' midfield very thin.

The other four Juventus players need more time to recover. Juan Cabal suffered a thigh injury last week but is expected to return first among the long-term absentees. Juventus hopes the Colombian fullback will return within a month. Jeff Reine-Adélaïde was injured in the first preseason friendly against Basel on July 18. After recovering, he was on the bench at the Allianz Stadium for the match against Parma on August 29, but was reinjured during training. This injury is more serious than the previous one and he is expected to miss at least 50 days.

Kenan Yıldız was injured in his Frosinone debut and underwent surgery on his left foot's fifth metatarsal in Germany last Monday. Thuram traveled to Lyon on Thursday for arthroscopic knee surgery with Dr. Bertrand Sonnery-Cottet, addressing a knee injury that has bothered him since the end of last season. Thiago Motta hopes Kenan Yıldız will return during the November international break. He is expected to miss three months and 14 matches. Thuram must wait until January. Because he did not play in summer competitions, Thuram was temporarily excluded from the Champions League and Serie A squads. While Kenan Yıldız's injury was sudden, Thuram's surgery was a planned intervention after conservative treatment proved ineffective.
