Juventus may be without first-choice centre-back Giorgio Chiellini for up to three months, as the player himself revealed on Thursday that he has suffered a calf injury.
The Italy international underwent tests on Thursday to examine the severity of knock, and the 28-year-old faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
?Unfortunately a lesion on my calf muscle has been confirmed. I?ll have to be out for a while ? But I?ll do everything I can to return as soon as possible and stronger than ever,? he wrote on Twitter.
?I thank you for the many get well soon messages I received over the last few hours. A hug to all of you.?
Juve recently released Lucio on a free transfer, meaning the club might be in the market for a defender in January.
