Juventus now say the right-back has a calf injury. He will undergo further tests in two weeks, and only then will it be decided how long he will be out of action, according to the club.

The injury crisis is thus at risk of worsening further for the national football team. There are already question marks over Alexander Isak, Dejan Kulusevski, Lucas Bergvall and Viktor Johansson.

Sweden's World Cup playoff will be played against Ukraine in Valencia on March 26. If they win, they will face Poland or Albania at home in Stockholm on March 31.
