Juventus is likely to be without both Andrea Cambiaso and Douglas Luiz for their upcoming Serie A clash against Monza, scheduled for Sunday at 19:45 GMT at the U-Power Stadium.
The Bianconeri are navigating a challenging period, having endured four consecutive draws in Serie A. They are already missing key players such as Arkadiusz Milik, Gleison Bremer, and Juan Cabal due to long-term injuries. The potential absence of Cambiaso and Douglas Luiz only adds to the team’s struggles.
Coach Thiago Motta had been optimistic about reinforcements returning to the lineup, but updates from the Continassa training camp suggest otherwise.
According to Calciomercato, both Cambiaso and Luiz have yet to rejoin full training with their teammates. As a result, their availability for the match against Monza appears unlikely. Juventus is now aiming to have them ready for their crucial encounter against Fiorentina on December 29.
Douglas Luiz, who joined Juventus from Aston Villa in the summer for €50 million, has struggled to make a significant impact. Despite making 11 appearances across Serie A and the Champions League, the Brazilian midfielder has yet to contribute a goal or assist.
As Juventus prepares for the second half of the season, overcoming their injury crisis will be vital to maintain competitiveness in both domestic and European campaigns.
