Juventus have received disappointing news regarding their recent signing, Nico Gonzalez. The former Fiorentina winger, who joined the Turin club in the final days of the transfer window, sustained an injury during Argentina’s World Cup 2026 qualifying match against Chile in Buenos Aires.
Calciomercato report how Gonzalez was forced to leave the field early in the second half due to a muscular problem, with Giovanni Lo Celso coming on as his replacement. The extent of his injury is yet to be determined, as the player’s condition will be evaluated in the coming hours.
This setback puts Gonzalez’s participation in Argentina’s upcoming match against Colombia on Tuesday in doubt. Moreover, his availability for Juventus’ next Serie A fixture against Empoli on September 14 is now uncertain.
The injury to Gonzalez compounds Juventus’ recent misfortunes, as it follows the news of Francisco Conceiçao’s injury during training. With Polish striker Milik still sidelined, manager Thiago Motta faces a challenging situation in his attacking options.
However, there is some positive news for the Bianconeri. Young talent Vasilije Adzic has returned to group training, while Khephren Thuram and Timothy Weah are nearing their comebacks after recovering from muscular issues sustained in the season opener against Como.
