Juventus and Milan Avoid More Substantial Injury Woes

Juventus feared to have lost another midfielder for a few games, but that’s not the case. Weston McKennie got banged up during his time with the USMNT, but he’s simply dealing with muscle fatigue. He’ll most likely be sidelined versus Lazio but won’t be out for long, TuttoSport relays.

Teun Koopmeiners has been fitted with a special protection following a rib fracture, but he’s a long shot to feature versus the Biancocelesti. He’s eyeing the Inter clash a week later. Nico Gonzalez will stay on the mend due to a thigh strain. Instead, Vasilije Adzic is good to go after his second muscular lesion of the season. Timothy Weah is on track to be available after an ankle sprain.

Samuel Chukwueze picked up an injury during his time with Nigeria, but there’s not much concern at Milan, Sky reports. He’s dealing with the same issue as McKennie and he could be present for their next game. The Rossoneri are confident Ruben Loftus-Cheek will be good to go as well after missing the last tilt before the break.

In other injury news, Nicolò Barella and Tajon Buchanan trained almost fully at Inter. The former will be an option against Roma after sitting out three fixtures due to a minor thigh problem. The wingback has been on the shelf for months due to a tibia fracture and is inching closer to a return.

Genoa continue to be hit hard by the injury bug. Koni De Winter suffered a thigh problem with Belgium and could be out for a month. Instead, Pierluigi Gollini will have a cyst in his hip surgically removed.
