Juventus Confirms Andrea Cambiaso's Injury Ahead of Manchester City Clash
Juventus has confirmed that defender Andrea Cambiaso sustained an ankle sprain during the match against Bologna, making his participation in the upcoming game against Manchester City highly unlikely.
Juventus Football Club has officially announced that Andrea Cambiaso suffered a left ankle sprain during the first half of their recent Serie A match against Bologna, which ended in a 2-2 draw. The 23-year-old defender was forced to leave the pitch after just 14 minutes due to the injury.
Medical examinations conducted at J Medical revealed a mild capsular ligament sprain in Cambiaso's left ankle. The club stated, 'His condition will be monitored daily.' However, reports from Gazzetta dello Sport indicate that while there is no ligament damage, Cambiaso's chances of featuring in the upcoming Champions League fixture against Manchester City are minimal.
This injury adds to Juventus's defensive concerns as they prepare to face the Premier League champions. Head coach Thiago Motta will need to explore alternative options to fill the void left by Cambiaso's absence.
