Juventus’ injury problems continue to mount up as Claudio Marchisio is reportedly ruled out of the trip to face Bayern Munich.

It was reported yesterday that striker Mario Mandzukic was a doubt for the Champions League last 16 second leg, with Giorgio Chiellini also likely to miss out.

Gazzetta dello Sport have now reported that Marchisio won’t be available for the clash in Germany or the Turin derby due to a calf strain.

The newspaper writes that the exact recovery time is still unclear but the first tests suggest the Italy international will be sidelined for between 20-30 days.

Hernanes or Stefano Sturaro are now tipped to start in midfield for the Bianconeri as they look to build on a 2-2 first leg draw.
