August 17, 2026Carlos Mendoza1 мин

Juventus is continuing their preparations for upcoming matches, with the team under Luciano Spalletti holding another training session today. There's good news for Khephren Thuram, who trained regularly with the rest of the squad, completing the entire session. This is a positive sign for the French midfielder, who is once again available to the Bianconeri coach.

Di Gregorio Absent from Training

Jeff Ekhator, however, followed a differentiated training program, continuing his individual recovery process from an injury sustained at the start of the training camp. Michele Di Gregorio was absent from the session, sidelined by flu-like symptoms.

Meanwhile, Lucumí Arrives

In the meantime, the anticipation in Turin is focused on Jhon Lucumí, the new reinforcement intended to bolster the Bianconeri's defensive line. The Colombian is scheduled for his medical examinations and contract signing this Sunday.
