Genoa forward Caleb Ekuban remains a doubt for the club’s return to Serie A action, with his availability for the upcoming match against Juventus uncertain due to injury concerns.
The 31-year-old Ghanaian, who suffered a thigh injury before the international break, has yet to fully recover despite undergoing nearly two weeks of rehabilitation.
Genoa’s medical team continues to assess his condition, but he remains short of full fitness, raising doubts over whether he will be available for selection.
Injury Struggles Continue
Ekuban’s absence from training has been a setback for Genoa and head coach Patrick Vieira, who had hoped to have the forward back in contention for the crucial fixture against Juventus on Saturday, March 29, 2025.
Although the club has not ruled him out completely, his return to action depends on further medical evaluations and clearance from the team’s doctors.
The muscle injury has significantly limited Ekuban’s mobility, and with Serie A entering a critical stage, Genoa will be cautious about rushing him back too soon.
The club is expected to make a final decision on his involvement closer to matchday.
Underwhelming Season So Far
Now in his fourth season with Genoa, Ekuban has struggled to find his best form. This campaign, he has managed just one goal and three assists in 13 league appearances, a modest return for a player expected to contribute more to the team’s attacking output.
Genoa, currently battling for a strong finish in Serie A, will be hoping for a fully fit squad as they approach the season’s final stretch.
If Ekuban fails to recover in time for the Juventus clash, Vieira will have to look for alternative options in attack as the team faces a tough challenge against the Turin giants.
