Milik injury: official statement

“Following a muscle injury sustained in training on Tuesday, 14 April 2026, Arkadiusz Milik underwent tests at J|Medical this Wednesday morning,” Juventus said in a statement.

“Those tests revealed a moderate-grade strain of the biceps femoris muscle in his right thigh.”

Juventus added that “further tests will be conducted in about 10 days’ time to determine the exact recovery time,” but according to Italian sources, including Gazzetta, it will take Milik from four to five weeks to fully recover from his latest injury, which means he won’t be available for the remaining six games of the season.

Milik had recently returned to action, making his first appearance in nearly two years in March.

The 32-year-old had suffered several injury setbacks from 2024 to 2026, including calf, knee, and adductor injuries, which forced him to miss the entire 2024-25 campaign.

Milik has been playing for Juventus since 2022, but has only played 77 games with the Old Lady, scoring 17 goals. His contract at the Allianz Stadium runs out in June 2027.
