Juventus-owned Hans Nicolussi Caviglia, on loan at Parma, will be out of action for the rest of the season after a knee ligament injury.
A statement released by Parma confirmed the left knee sprain during training on December 15 proved to be far more serious than initially believed.
Tests showed the complete tear of the anterior cruciate ligament.
Nicolussi Caviglia will have surgery over the next few days and is expected to be out of action for at least six months.

The 20-year-old had made just two appearances in the Coppa Italia this term.
“Thank you to those who were worried about me,” wrote the midfielder on social media.
“Unfortunately, the tests showed the cruciate ligament tear. I will be forced to stay off the grass that is the great love of my life.
“But I’ll give my all to return stronger than ever!”
Grazie a chi si è subito preoccupato per me. Purtroppo le visite hanno evidenziato la rottura del legamento crociato. Sarò costretto a stare lontano per parecchio tempo da quel verde che è il grande amore della mia vita. Ma ce la metterò tutta per tornare ancora più forte! pic.twitter.com/gziSAFm5nY
