Juventus Confirm Mid-Grade Hamstring Lesion for Juan Cabal

The club will re-evaluate the defender in two weeks to set a clear return timetable.

Overview

  • Cabal left the Champions League match at Villarreal around the 16th minute clutching his right thigh and was substituted in visible pain.
  • Imaging at J|Medical identified a mid-grade lesion of the right biceps femoris, according to Juventus’ announcement.
  • Media outlets estimate an absence of about six weeks, though the club has not given a definitive recovery date.
  • The setback comes shortly after Cabal’s return from a long ACL layoff, which raises caution over his workload and rehabilitation pace.
  • Reports suggest he could target readiness for preparations before the November 22 match against Fiorentina if progress is on track.
