The Colombian defender Juan Cabal he ended his first season with the Juventus shirt prematurely. “Today the player Juan Cabal underwent diagnostic tests at J|medical which highlighted the injury to the anterior cruciate ligament of the left knee. Cabal will undergo surgery in the next few days”, reads the statement from the Juventus club.
Arriving at the clinic on crutches and with a conspicuous brace, Cabal, we remember, was injured during the first training session with his Colombia, the national team in retreat in Argentina in preparation for the next South American commitments. Already from the federation’s press release it was clear that the injury could be serious, the diagnosis of which was unfortunately confirmed. A check-up at J|medical, with the necessary tests, was enough to confirm the first outcome of the Colombia medical staff: the footballer, freshly returning to Turin, will undergo surgery in the next few days, then he will begin the long therapy: the his season can be defined as over as of now.
So, now it’s time for Juventus to think about the transfer market and the ball passes to Cristiano Giuntoli: with Bremer’s withdrawal and Cabal’s serious injury, there will be two defenders who will arrive in Turin in January.
