Juventus are currently dealing with an injury crisis, and Locatelli has joined the list of long-term absentees after being injured against AC Milan. The Juventus medical center has examined the meniscus in his right knee, with the results expected to arrive within the next few hours. However, Tuttosport points out that the worst-case scenario could see him miss at least three months. Similar to the two incidents that occurred within a week (Yildiz suffering a left foot injury and Thuram also sustaining a knee injury), Locatelli is also likely to undergo surgery, with Juventus hoping he can return shortly after the international break.

By comparison, Boga's muscle issue after the match against AC Milan is less serious, although there are concerns that he may have suffered a hamstring strain. The final diagnosis will be awaited today. If the initial assessment is confirmed, Boga could return to Spalletti's available squad in around a month.
