Milik and Thuram Out: Juventus' Serie A Squad Shake-Up
6 Sep
Summary
- Thuram underwent knee surgery, impacting his availability.
- Milik has been injury-plagued and faces contract uncertainty.
- New signing Woltemade affects Milik's role in the squad.
Juventus has made significant changes to its 25-man Serie A squad, notably excluding midfielder Khephren Thuram and striker Arkadiusz Milik. Thuram recently underwent surgery for patellar chondropathy in his right knee, a procedure that will keep him sidelined.
Milik's exclusion comes after a prolonged period of injury struggles, with his contract nearing its end. The club's recent acquisition of attacker Nick Woltemade further diminishes his immediate prospects for the first half of the campaign.
This decision follows their earlier omission from Juventus' Europa League squad, though Edon Zhegrova, also left out of the Europa League list, remains in the Serie A squad. Serie A regulations allow for a limited number of squad replacements during the season under specific conditions.
