Allegri confirms the worst omens: "It's over for McKennie"

The Juventus coach assured that the injured midfielder will not play again until next season

McKennie was injured in the match against Villarreal

The midfielder of the Juventus, Weston McKennie (23), will miss the rest of the club’s season. The player from Fort Lewis, Washington, broke two bones in his left foot during a Champions League match against Villarreal on February 22 when Pervis Estupiñán tackled him hard.

Juventus originally projected McKennie’s recovery time at 8-9 weeks, but it’s going to be a bit longer. “The season is over for Weston because of his injury,” manager Massimiliano Allegri announced after Sunday’s 1-0 win over Spezia. “He will be back next season.”

Juventus closes the Serie A season on May 21 against Fiorentina. The 2022-23 season begins the second weekend of August. McKennie will miss the last three World Cup qualifiers in the United States, from March 24-30.
