Italian giants Juventus have confirmed more unwelcome news regarding Paul Pogba after he was recently dropped for disciplinary reasons.
Check Out: Juve Boss Explains Why He Disciplined Pogba
Last week Thursday, Massimiliano Allegri decided to exclude the Frenchman from his matchday squad for the UEFA Europa League due to lateness.
Pogba's timekeeping cost him minutes following a long wait to return to action, but it seems the Frenchman has suffered yet another fitness setback.
The 29-year-old missed the team's dramatic 4-2 win over Sampdoria on Sunday due to a new muscle tweak, as confirmed by Allegri.
"This morning, Pogba was taking free kicks and felt a twinge in his adductor," he explained after the match, according The Athletic.
"He will have tests tomorrow, but he will certainly not be there on Thursday or next Sunday, so we'll see him after the break for international duty."
Pogba has made just two appearances across all competitions this season after making his second debut for the club just last month.
The ex-Manchester United sustained a knee injury in pre-season that kept him sidelined for seven months.
