Andrea Cambiaso, who was forced off during the first half of Juventus’ match against Bologna on Saturday evening, underwent medical examinations at JMedical this morning. The tests revealed a modest capsule-ligament distraction in his left ankle. The club has announced that his condition will be monitored daily.
The Juventus winger will definitely miss Wednesday’s Champions League match against Manchester City. Cambiaso’s condition will need to be further evaluated to determine his availability for the upcoming fixtures before Christmas, including the league match against Venezia on December 14, the Coppa Italia game with Cagliari on December 17, and the Serie A clash with Monza on December 22.
The day at Juventus began with Cambiaso arriving at JMedical at 10:30 AM for the necessary assessments. Initial indications from the Bianconeri medical staff seem reassuring, with a concrete possibility of recovery in time for the Champions League match against Manchester City on Wednesday. This news brings hope to manager Thiago Motta, who is eager to have one of his most dynamic players available.
Cambiaso’s presence could prove crucial in facing Manchester City, a team known for its high-tempo play and pressing. The versatile fullback, with his ability to cover the entire flank and contribute both defensively and offensively, is a key asset in Motta’s tactical setup.
