Bad luck, your name is Milik: Juve's Pole suffers ninth injury in the last three years

The striker was sidelined for almost 750 days and missed over 110 games since he joined the Italian club in June 2023

When someone looks at Arkadiusz Milik's stats at Juventus, they probably get dumbfounded, as the Pole's stint in Turin hasn't been plagued by injuries. Rather, it’s been a three-year absence, interrupted by occasional and brief comebacks.

How else could one explain the following fact: ever since he permanently joined the Old Lady in June 2023, the Pole has made 77 appearances and missed 113 games, suffering nine injuries and totaling 737 days out?!

To make matters worse, these staggering numbers will grow, as he picked up another injury yesterday, just three weeks after returning to the pitch following a year-long absence!

Milik clocked 36 minutes across two Juve's Serie A matches against Sassuolo and Genoa. Five days ago, he was on the bench against Atalanta, and yesterday he injured his hamstring, ruling him out for the next 4-5 weeks, practically until the end of the season.

Before the aforementioned clashes, he last played for the Bianconeri in May 2024, as he severely hurt his knee shortly after.

According to sources from Italy, Milik's stint at Allianz Stadium is close to its end, as Juve will do their best to get rid of the player whom they paid €7.3 million to Olympique Marseille three years ago, even though his contract expires in June 2027.

Over time, they got used to life without the 32-year-old, so his imminent departure won't hit them too hard.
