Kenan Yildiz is at risk of missing out on Juventus’s upcoming Serie A match away against Parma on Easter Monday, as he struggled with a blunt force trauma at the end of Wednesday’s training session according to reports from various outlets.

Reports Yildiz at risk of missing Parma-Juventus

According to Sky Sport Italia, the Turkey international suffered a blow towards the end of Tudor’s training session, which casts doubts over his availability to face Parma away in Serie A on Monday.

Reports from Ilbianconero, however, suggest that there is no major cause for concern, and that Yildiz could still be in contention to feature at the Tardini Stadium after the weekend.

Yildiz is one of the players who has kicked on since Tudor came in to replace Thiago Motta as head coach at the end of March, and now has two goals from his last three appearances, which accounts for 50% of Juve’s goals over that period.

Meanwhile, Sky confirm that four Bianconeri players undertook differentiated training programmes on Wednesday: They were Teun Koopmeiners, Weston McKennie, Samuel Mbangula and the returning Mattia Perin.

Defender Renato Veiga was not involved in Wednesday’s training session due to illness.
