Juventus striker Amauri will be sidelined for at least 10 days with a right Achilles tendon injury.

The Italy international picked up the knock during Sunday's goalless Serie A draw at Bologna and will need between 10 and 15 days to recover.

Amauri will miss Saturday's match at AC Milan as well as next week's Europa League Group A encounter at home to Salzburg.

Juve will be hoping to have Vincenzo Iaquinta available this weekend, with the striker having sustained a knock to his right knee on Sunday.

The Turin giants lie fifth in the Serie A standings, seven points behind league leaders Lazio after eight games.
