Following the injury sustained by Kenan Yildiz during the victory over Frosinone, Juventus must adapt their attacking setup. The No 10 is at risk of missing a significant run of fixtures, including key league clashes and the opening matches of the Europa League league phase.
First in line to step up is the club's recent recruit, Alajbegovic. The Bosnian talent, who arrived in the summer for a 32 million euro fee, offers a fresh profile for the attacking line. Alternatively, the experienced Jeremie Boga is a natural candidate, having been signed permanently from Nice for 4.75 million euros following his loan stint.
Boga was the player who replaced Yildiz in the 69th minute of the 1-0 win at Frosinone, showing he is already in the manager's plans. Nico Gonzalez remains another versatile option for the technical staff as the club prepares for a demanding calendar featuring matches against opponents like AC Milan, Napoli, and Fiorentina.
