Juventus have been hit with another injury blow as Paulo Dybala is set to miss the rest of the season after undergoing surgery on his knee.
The Argentine forward was forced off during Juventus' 1-1 draw against Sassuolo in Serie A last weekend, and it has now been confirmed that he will be out for several months.
Dybala had been in excellent form this season, scoring six goals in just eight games before his injury. He was also named in the Italy national team's squad for Euro 2020 earlier this year.
The news comes at a crucial time for Juventus, who are currently fourth in Serie A and looking to secure a place in next season's Champions League.
With Dybala out for so long,Serie A Stadium it remains to be seen whether Juventus can find a suitable replacement for him in their attack. The club will need to look to the likes of Gonzalo Higuain or Simone De Bruyne to fill the void left by the injured striker.
It's a tough blow for Dybala himself, who had been enjoying a successful campaign at Juventus. However, the club will hope that they can find a way to overcome the setback and continue their strong run of form in the league.
