Torino defender Nikola Maksimovic risks a lengthy lay-off after fracturing his foot on international duty with Serbia.

He was in training as the squad prepared for a match against Armenia on Friday in Novi Sad.

The official club website confirmed there was an injury to the left foot.

Although it would not give further details until the player returned to Turin for tests with the Granata medical staff, the Serbian national team gave a damning verdict.

They confirmed Maksimovic has fractured the fifth metatarsal bone in his left foot and will require surgery.
