For as much as Juventus\u2019 big first half against Parma on Sunday was another feather in the cap for Luciano Spalletti, there was still one thing for the veteran manager to suddenly worry about: the health of Kenan Yildiz. That is because Juve\u2019s budding Turkish star asked Spalletti toward the end of the first half to come off at the half having felt something physically that needed to be addressed as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
While Yildiz likely won\u2019t be heading to J Medical to undergo scans, there is still a pretty good chance that we don\u2019t see him the next time Juventus takes the field in a few days.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
According to both Tuttosport<\/a> and La Gazzetta dello Sport<\/a> on Monday, the slight adductor strain that Yildiz suffered in the first half of the win over Parma will mean he likely misses Thursday\u2019s Coppa Italia quarterfinal tie against Atalanta in Bergamo and then Sunday\u2019s league fixture at the Allianz Stadium against three days later. That goes along with what Spalletti said after the win over Parma. \u201cWe trusted (Yildiz), but he now has a bit of pain even when walking, so we have to evaluate it, but it shouldn\u2019t be too serious. I think it\u2019ll be tough to get him ready for Thursday,\u201d Spalletti said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
