Alex Sandro out for 10 days

By Football Italia staff

Juventus announced Alex Sandro will be out for 10 days and not six weeks, as tests ruled out muscular lesions.

There was a huge scare when the full-back pulled up during training yesterday, with reports he had suffered a serious thigh strain.

However, this evening tests ruled out any lesions and medics believe it will take 10 days for his return to the field.

It’s a massive sigh of relief for the Bianconeri, although it does still likely rule Alex Sandro out of the first leg of the Champions League clash with Bayern Munich.
