Juventus have confirmed that centre-back Danilo is expected to miss around three weeks of action after picking up an injury. The Bianconeri captain was forced to come off during Brazil’s 1-1 draw with Venezuela and returned immediately to Turin where he underwent medial checks.
The club have now released a statement confirming the players status:
“After sustaining an injury while on international duty, Danilo underwent a clinical assessment at J|Medical.
The tests revealed a hamstring strain in his left leg. The player has begun a rehabilitation programme geared towards resuming competitive activity.”
The expected recovery time for the Brazilian international is expected to be around 20 days, meaning he will miss Juve’s upcoming match against Milan.
