While Juventus has not specified an exact timeline for Weah’s recovery, such injuries typically require several weeks of rehabilitation.

Consequently, Weah is expected to miss the remaining fixtures of 2024, including Serie A matches against Monza on December 22 and Fiorentina on December 29.

If his recovery progresses well, Weah could be available for selection in early January 2025.

Potential return dates include the Supercoppa Italiana semifinal against AC Milan on January 3 or the Serie A derby against Torino on January 11.
