Juventus in crisis, missing Yildiz: when he can return

Yildiz expected back in early December after left foot surgery; Juventus awaiting their key playmaker's return.

Kenan Yildiz suffered a fifth metatarsal fracture in his left foot during Juventus's season opener at Frosinone on August 31 and underwent surgery at a German clinic. He began rehabilitation in Regensburg before returning to Turin on September 25 to continue recovery with Juventus's medical staff. The club estimates a three-month absence, targeting early December for his return as manager Luciano Spalletti looks to reunite with his technical leader.
