Reports: Kenan Yildiz may need surgery after suffering foot injury vs. Frosinone
This is not the kind of development that you want to see take place after your season-opening win.
BENITO STIRPE STADIUM, FROSINONE, ITALY - 2026/08/23: Kenan Yildiz of Juventus FC suffered a left foot injury during Sunday’s season-opening match against Frosinone, according to multiple reports from Italy. Sky Sport Italia and La Gazzetta dello Sport suggest that Yildiz may require surgery for the injury, which could sideline him for around two months.
This development comes as a significant concern for Juventus, who are looking to avoid a poor start to their Serie A campaign. While Yildiz's knee issue from the spring has been a worry, this new injury adds to the team's troubles. If surgery is necessary, Yildiz would miss much of the remainder of the season, including the Europa League league phase.
Juventus will need to rely on players like Kerim Alajbegović and Jérémie Boga to fill the void left by Yildiz, but the loss of their most talented player is undoubtedly a setback for the team.
