Two Juventus stars still not fit enough to train with the rest of the team | OneFootball

Juventus will welcome Parma to the Allianz Stadium in their next match, with the Bianconeri targeting all three points against a Parma side that has lost some of its key figures during this transfer window.

However, that does not mean Parma will be an easy team to face, and Juventus have two injury concerns ahead of the game, apart from Kenan Yildiz, who could be out for a long time.

The Bianconeri believe they have a squad capable of winning matches even when some players are unavailable, and they will expect the rest of the team to step up when Parma visit the Allianz Stadium.

Juventus have been preparing for the match, and Tuttomercatoweb reveals that the team trained without Federico Gatti and Jeff Ekhator during their latest session, with both players instead working individually on personalised programmes.

Gatti and Ekhator Remain Injury Concerns

Gatti was injured by a fan during the pre-season game against Juventus’ Next Gen when a pitch invasion disrupted the match. The incident left the defender dealing with an injury, and he is now working to regain his fitness.

Ekhator, meanwhile, suffered his injury much earlier during Juventus’ preparations for the new season. His recovery has continued, but he has not yet returned to full team training.

Both players are working hard to get back to full fitness as the season progresses, although there is currently no certainty that either will be available for the upcoming match against Parma.

Juventus Await Fitness Updates

Their absence would give Juventus another selection issue to consider, particularly with Yildiz already facing a potentially lengthy spell on the sidelines. The Bianconeri will therefore need to manage their squad carefully as they prepare for another league fixture.

Despite these concerns, Juventus remain confident in the depth of their squad. They will expect the available players to deliver against Parma and maintain their strong start to the campaign.

Gatti and Ekhator will continue their individual programmes as they work towards returning to the team. Juventus will assess their progress in the coming days before making a final decision on their availability.

For now, neither player is certain to be fit and ready to feature, leaving Juventus waiting for further updates before the Parma match.
