Early reports suggest that Juventus will be without Alessandro Del Piero for around the next four weeks.
The Delle Alpi star picked up an injury in the 2-2 draw with Roma last night and the news isn’t good for the Bianconeri.
The Italian international suffered a left calf strain after just 14 minutes and initial tests suggest he’ll be out for a month.
However, the exact seriousness of the injury will not be known until he has a scan on the problem this Tuesday.
In his absence, boss Marcello Lippi could decide to play either Fabrizio Miccoli or Marco Di Vaio – who scored twice last night.
Meanwhile, David Trezeguet has criticised his side for becoming too defensive in the closing minutes of the game which led to Roma’s 87th minute equaliser.
"I’m saddened by the result," he said. "Up until my substitution I think we deserved a third goal more than they merited a second.
"We tried to close the game and that was a mistake. We even risked losing it right at the end."
one thing...... how come these 'early reports' say a month when a proper scan will be done on Tuesday ?
and that's the second time that Trez has spoken out about tactics ? He is not the boss, Lippi is. Shut up Trez.
