Juventus Awaits Thuram's Readiness Before Turin Derby

Wednesday 20-05-2026
Juventus enters the derby against Torino under great pressure, after the team's position in the race for Champions League qualification became complicated following their recent loss to Fiorentina.

The 'Bianconeri' currently hold the sixth position with 68 points, tied with Como, and are two points behind Milan and Roma, making a win in the final round a necessity for Luciano Spalletti's team, while also hoping for rivals to falter at the same time.

Before the anticipated match, the technical staff is monitoring the situation of Frenchman Khephren Thuram, who is racing against time to reach optimal readiness before the last matches of the season.

The French midfielder participated in the last twenty minutes against Fiorentina and continued his training program at the 'Continassa' center even during the rest period, according to journalist Paolo Aghemo via 'Sky Sport'.

Thuram hopes to regain full physical readiness to be present in the derby, especially given the importance of the match and the team's need for all its key players at this crucial stage.

On the other hand, it has been confirmed that Brazilian defender Bremer will miss the match against Torino due to suspension, with Federico Gatti set to replace him in Juventus's starting lineup.
