Giampaolo Pazzini will be sidelined for eight to ten days after a muscle injury.
The striker, who had just returned to action after several months out with a knee injury, is believed to have picked up an injury to his adductor muscle in his right leg and will require between eight to 10 days away from the pitch, reports Xinhua.
Despite Pazzini being injured and Alessandro Matri being loaned out to Fiorentina, Milan are in no striking crisis as new arrival Keisuke Honda has displayed impressive form.
