The wait is now about to end: Sunday 6 September, with the kick‑off set for 20:45, the first true big match of the season between Juventus and Milan will take place. A very important clash that will measure the ambitions of both teams and will force Juventus to face a decidedly overcrowded medical department.

Juventus-Milan, latest ahead of the match

Cambiaso instead appears to have taken a step back, remaining on the bench due to a slight ankle sprain suffered in the match against Parma. Edon Zhegrova also has work to do because of a muscular fatigue: the conditions of the two players will, of course, be closely monitored in the coming days.

Today's day, however, marks the first group training for Woltemade, who is ready to join the squad as Sarr did. The absence of Yildiz, out for three months after foot surgery, and that of Ekhator weigh on the attacking department, but the most bitter news concerns Kephren Thuram.

The conservative therapy linked to the femoro‑patellar syndrome that had plagued him since the end of last season did not bring the hoped‑for benefits and, after missing the summer friendlies and remaining on the bench at Frosinone, the midfielder has decided to undergo surgery: on Thursday 3 September in Lyon the player will go under the knife, staying out for at least four months and returning only in January 2027.
