Conceiçao injury: Juventus wait for tests, but derby at risk

Francisco Conceiçao will undergo medical tests in Turin on Sunday, but according to Gazzetta, the Juventus winger risks missing the upcoming derby della Mole against Torino.

Juventus winger Conceiçao could miss the next Serie A game against Torino after suffering an injury during the warm-up of a Supercoppa semifinal against Milan on Friday.

The Portuguese was expected to start against the Rossoneri, coached by his father Sergio, but was forced to the sidelines during pre-match preparation. The 22-year-old left the pitch in tears.

Gazzetta reports that Conceiçao will undergo medical tests at J Medical upon Juventus’ return from Saudi Arabia, where the Supercoppa Final Four is being held.

Juventus landed in Turin at 20:00 local time today, and Conceiçao is expected to undergo examinations tomorrow morning.

The pink paper claims that the Portugal international will need to rest for a week even if exams rule out a muscle injury, so he’s naturally in doubt for the derby against Torino, scheduled for December 11.
