Parma, new injury for Bernabé: how long will he be out?

The midfielder suffered an injury in training.

Alberto Gilardino has lost a key member of his midfield to injury. Adrian Bernabé has struggled for consistency in his performances and had to stop training again yesterday because of a muscle problem.

After Bernabé underwent scans, the results confirmed the presence of a lesion.

The statement

Parma Calcio have issued the following statement: "Following the muscular discomfort he felt yesterday, Sunday 1 November, during training, player Adrián Bernabé underwent diagnostic tests this morning which revealed a low-grade strain of the rectus femoris muscle in his left thigh. The player will be monitored daily and has already begun rehabilitation aimed at returning to competitive action."

How long will they be out?

Bernabé will definitely miss this evening's match against Atalanta. Given the nature of his injury, he is unlikely to return until after the international break.
