Juventus anticipates Jeff Ekhator's return by late October or early November

Jeff Ekhator is yet to make his competitive debut for Juventus after joining from Genoa this summer due to injuries. Following setbacks during his recovery, Juventus now expects the teenager to return towards the end of October or early November. Ekhator's potential contribution is seen as vital, especially as other forwards struggle to meet expectations. The club aims to ensure Ekhator is fully fit before he returns to action, as they hope he can play an important role in the latter part of the season, potentially providing competition for existing players in attack.
