Official: Grabara has successful ACL surgery after Juventus injury

Goalkeeper Kamil Grabara underwent successful ACL surgery to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee following an injury sustained during a training session at Juventus. The Italian club announced that he could be sidelined for up to seven months due to the extensive nature of the operation. Grabara, who joined Juventus on loan from VfL Wolfsburg in August, made his debut in a 5-0 Europa League victory over NEC.

Coach Luciano Spalletti confirmed that the injury occurred during a regular training exercise, and was diagnosed through medical tests. The surgery was performed by Dr Andrzej Pyda at the Guardian Clinic in Konin, with Dr Marco Freschi, Juventus' club doctor, present. The procedure entailed a full reconstruction of Grabara's right knee's anterior cruciate ligament, marking a more significant operation than a simple tear.

In response to Grabara's injury, Juventus secured a replacement by agreeing personal terms with free agent Neto, who is set to be with the club until June 2027.
