Official: Kenan Yildiz undergoes surgery for fracture, out 2-3 months
Juventus have confirmed that Kenan Yildiz has undergone surgery to repair a fracture. The 20-year-old Turkish international, who has been one of Juventus's most important attacking players this season, is expected to be unavailable for 2-3 months. The injury is a significant blow to Juventus, who will need to find replacements in attack during a critical period of the season. Yildiz's absence will likely force tactical adjustments from head coach Thiago Motta.
Read the full story at football-italia.netKenan Yildiz had emerged as the creative hub of Juventus's attack this season, providing both goals and assists from the left flank.

With the January transfer window open, Juventus may now be compelled to enter the market for attacking reinforcements. The timing is particularly damaging as Juventus are fighting on multiple fronts domestically and in European competition.
