Juventus’ Vlahovic set for long lay-off with groin injury
Vlahovic suffered a high-grade muscle injury to the left adductor longus and is expected to be sidelined until February, impacting Juventus’s key striker availability.
- Juventus confirmed on Monday that Dusan Vlahovic is sidelined with a serious groin injury and will miss action until well into the new year after the weekend's 2-1 win over Cagliari in Turin.
- Radiology on Monday found a high-grade injury to the muscle-tendon junction of the left adductor longus after Vlahovic was forced off half an hour into Saturday's 2-1 win over Cagliari.
- The striker's form—Vlahovic scored six times this season, three in Serie A and three in the Champions League, and contributed in his last six appearances for Juventus' seven-match unbeaten run.
- Juventus face Udinese on Tuesday and then Napoli on Sunday, leaving those matches without Vlahovic as Italian reports say he may not return before February next year.
- Now managed by Luciano Spalletti, Juventus sit seventh, and Dusan Vlahovic’s reclaimed starting role and contract expiry at season's end complicate Juventus' squad planning.
