(Reuters) - Juventus could be without Angel Di Maria and Federico Chiesa for Sunday's Serie A match at Inter Milan as the Turin club battles a growing injury list, manager Massimiliano Allegri said.
Both have struggled with injuries this season and Allegri said on Saturday they could join Leonardo Bonucci, Alex Sandro, Arkadiusz Milik and Paul Pogba as injury absentees.
"They could both be out, I don’t know, we’ll see after training. We don’t have options up front without Kean and Milik, we have Soule but only Vlahovic as a starting striker," Allegri said. "We’ve been saying the same things for eight months. When he’s doing well ... he’ll be available, I doubt he’ll be available immediately after the break, it'll take a little more time," Allegri said.
Allegri's side are seventh in the league with 38 points, seven behind sixth-placed Atalanta, who earned a late 2-1 victory against Empoli on Friday. Inter are second on 50 points.
