0 – this is how many minutes Arkadiusz Milik spent on the pitch this season. The 30-year-old still cannot return to optimal form after the injury he suffered during a friendly match against Ukraine in early June. Last month, Milik underwent arthroscopic sewing of the remnants of the medial meniscus in his left knee, which turned out to be necessary.
When will Milik return to the game? The Italians reported new news
For this reason, the Development Katowice student is currently undergoing rehabilitation. When can we expect him to return to the game? Recently, journalists from the Italian “Tuttosport” commented on this topic. According to their information, if everything goes according to plan, the Pole should be ready to be at the coach's disposal for the Italian Super Cup.
This tournament will take place in early January (January 2-6, 2025). Inter Milan, Atalanta, AC Milan and Juventus, where the 73-time Polish representative plays, will take part in it. Juventus will face Milan in the semi-finals. For now, Thiago Motta can only really use Dusan Vlahovic as a center forward. Considering the multitude of matches in various competitions, this is not a very comfortable situation.
Therefore, Arkadiusz Milik would certainly be useful to the coach in the second half of the season. The 30-year-old's contract with the Turin team expires on June 30, 2026. It is possible that our national team member will leave the Italian team earlier. “Unless there is an unexpected improvement in his situation in the second half of the season, this will be the player's last season at Juventus,” the Italians reported recently.
At the same time, Galatasaray is interested in the Pole's services, and Nicola Zalewski could join in the summer. “The leader of the Turkish league must look for a new striker after Mauro Icardi suffered a knee injury. This is a rupture of the cruciate ligaments, which excludes Icardi's return to play this season. Therefore, Galatasaray must make a transfer, and one of the candidates is Milik” – wrote Aleksander Bernard from Sport.pl. Despite this, the player's current priority is probably returning to full health.
