Injury update : Veiga, Conceicao, Savona & Douglas Luiz

Juventus has returned to training at Continassa following their victory against Verona as they begin preparations for the crucial match against Atalanta, set to take place on Sunday at the Allianz Stadium (kick-off at 20:45). This game is particularly significant for the race for third place, with Atalanta currently three points ahead.

For the first time in a long while, Thiago Motta will have an entire week free from cup commitments, a situation that will persist for the rest of the season—just like Atalanta.

Injury updates: Who’s IN and who’s OUT?

Against Verona, Juventus was missing several players in addition to long-term absentees Bremer, Cabal, and Milik. Savona, Douglas Luiz, Renato Veiga, and Conceição were also unavailable.

However, Kalulu made his return from injury. The closest to recovering is Renato Veiga, who is hopeful of making the squad for the Atalanta game. But will Thiago Motta have more players returning?

Conceicao rulet out against Atalanta: aimimg for Fioretina’s return?

The latest player to suffer a setback is Francisco Conceição, who sustained a muscular issue. Fortunately, tests ruled out a serious injury, but he has been diagnosed with a hamstring strain.

Having already missed the Verona match, the Portuguese winger will also be unavailable against Atalanta. However, there is optimism that he could return for the away fixture against Fiorentina.

Savona and Douglas Luiz recovery time

Nicolò Savona, who picked up an injury in the Champions League match against PSV, is another player on the sidelines. He, too, has suffered a hamstring strain and will be unavailable for both the Atalanta and Fiorentina clashes. His return is expected only after the international break.

Douglas Luiz is once again dealing with a physical setback. The Brazilian midfielder has sustained a low-grade hamstring injury in his left thigh. There is no chance of him recovering in time for the matches against Atalanta and Fiorentina. Instead, he will use the upcoming international break to fully heal, ensuring he doesn’t rush his recovery.

There are the latest update from the injury players from Il Bianconero.
