Juventus midfielder Sami Khedira will be sidelined for two to three weeks after medical tests revealed a muscle tear in his right thigh, the Serie A club have announced.

The German international missed the first two months of the season with a thigh injury. Since returning, he has scored three goals in 15 appearances. 

Khedira faces a race to be fit for Juve's Champions league round of 16 first-leg clash with Bayern Munich on February 23.
