Federico Chiesa has been out with injury for seven months and Juve had hoped the attacker would return to training in October.
It’s been months and he’s continued to recover, but being back in shape next month now is highly unrealistic.
The attacker was a key player in the Bianconeri squad before suffering this long-term injury, and they are still waiting for him.
They have added several new men to the squad, but it is clear that Chiesa is a missing piece.
A report on Tuttomercatoweb claims that he is not that close to training again and could be out until the new year.
He insists that the best possible return date for him would be the second half of this campaign.
However, Paul Pogba is making progress in his recovery, and the midfielder could be back in full training next month.
Juve FC says
Chiesa and Pogba are two quality players whose input will take our performance to the next level.
The delay in Chiesa’s return is normal for a serious injury, however, Pogba should be back soon.
Injuries plagued him during his time at Manchester United. Hopefully, he hasn’t taken that with him to Turin.
