Juventus have suffered a fresh injury blow just as they come to terms with the fact that Manuel Locatelli will be out of their squad for several months.

They have also lost Kenan Yildiz and Khephren Thuram to long-term injuries, and the injury curse shows no sign of stopping, with Jeremie Boga now set to miss an extended period of action as well.

Boga Suffers Fresh Injury Blow

According to Calciomercato, a fresh scan has shown that Boga has suffered an injury and will be out of action for up to a month, leaving the Bianconeri to deal with yet another setback.

In the absence of Yildiz, Boga had been the player Juve hoped would operate on the left wing and ensure that position remained strong. The former Nice man is a top player, but he has now suffered an injury that will keep him out for several weeks.

The report states that Boga could be sidelined for up to a month, adding to the growing list of injury concerns facing Juventus at this stage of the season.

Juventus Must Cope With Absences

Juve did their best to strengthen their squad during the last transfer window, but Luciano Spalletti did not get every player he asked the club to sign. He must now do his best with the group available to him.

The situation has made it increasingly difficult for Juventus to keep their key players fit, particularly with injuries affecting important areas of the squad. Spalletti will have to find solutions as he manages the growing number of absences.

The men at the Allianz Stadium will be keen to ensure they continue competing effectively in the league despite these setbacks. They have already dealt with several significant injuries, and Boga’s latest problem only makes their task more difficult.

Juventus will now hope their injury situation improves quickly and that they can avoid suffering further setbacks. With several important players unavailable, the Bianconeri must make the most of the options at their disposal as they look to improve their results this season.
