The Serie A kicked off with a few surprises but there is no surprise whatsoever that the biggest one of the Italian League is the defeat that Juventus experienced after losing against Udinese in the opening match of the season.

Juventus received Udinese at the Juventus Stadium in Torino and sustained their first loss of the season as it was the visiting team which claimed the victory thanks to a solo goal which arrived from Cyril Thereau.

When the match reached it’s end, MassimilianoAllegri stated that his team did not deserve to lose as Juventus had a lot of chances to score but just couldn’t capitalize on those goal-scoring moments properly but to make matters worse, besides the surprising and fairly disappointing scoreboard for the home team, there is something else which has affected the team and its involving one of Allegri’s latest signings Sami Khedira.

The German midfielder Sami Khedira sustained a hamstring injury during a pre-season friendly that Juventus played against Marseille on August 1rst and it was later confirmed that the veteran player had a muscle tear in his right thigh which is going to make the player unable to play in any competitive match for Juventus during the next 2 months.

Juventus managed to sign Sami Khedira from Real Madrid on a free transfer and the German player penned a 4 year long contract with the champions of Italy. Khedira was deemed as surplus in Real Madrid as he was mostly sitting on the sidelines of the Santiago Bernabeu and decided to join Juventus where his chances of performing in the main team are practically guaranteed but this will have to wait as this hamstring injury will force the German midfielder on staying in the sidelines.
