Expected return

After international break

What happened. Pietro Pellegri has returned to training with Torino after suffering ACL injuries in back-to-back loan seasons at Empoli, the second requiring reconstructive surgery in January 2026. He is reportedly targeting a Serie A comeback once domestic football resumes after the international break.

Pellegri was once the youngest Serie A debutant at 15 years and 280 days.
He joined Monaco in 2018 for a reported €25m including bonuses.
Since joining Torino permanently in 2022, he has made only 42 Serie A appearances.

If he stays fit, Pellegri could finally revive a career derailed by repeated serious knee injuries.
