Juventus Confirm Successful Surgery for Randal Kolo Muani

Juventus have confirmed that Randal Kolo Muani has undergone successful surgery on a hand fracture suffered in the 2-0 win over Atalanta, easing fears of a lengthy lay-off for their new centre-forward.

The French striker picked up the injury in an accidental collision during Sunday night’s Serie A victory at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, a match that underlined Juve’s growing momentum under Luciano Spalletti but ended with concern over their No. 9.

Medical tests revealed a fracture of the proximal phalanx in his hand, an issue serious enough to require immediate intervention. The club sent him straight to the J|medical centre at Continassa, where osteosynthesis surgery was carried out on Monday by specialist De Loris Pegoli.

The operation went to plan. Juventus made it clear he is expected back on the training pitch within a couple of days, meaning Spalletti should have him at his disposal during the upcoming international break rather than losing him for weeks.

It is an important boost. Signed from Paris Saint-Germain to add pace and incision to the Bianconeri attack, Kolo Muani has already chipped in with one goal and two assists in six competitive appearances this season. The numbers are modest, but his movement and link-up play have quickly made him a key reference point in Juve’s forward line.

The fracture will force him to manage discomfort and likely train with protection on the hand, yet the club’s medical bulletin points firmly toward continuity rather than disruption.

For Juventus, chasing their way back to the top of Serie A, keeping their new striker on the pitch could prove far more decisive than the bandage wrapped around his hand.
