Sami Khedira could miss Coppa Italia final for Juventus with calf injury

Sami Khedira could miss the Coppa Italia final after tearing a calf muscle, Juventus revealed on Friday.

The midfielder will sit out Juventus' final two Serie A games this season while trying to recover in time to face AC Milan on May 21.

The Bianconeri, who have already secured the Serie A title, remain hopeful of the German international's status for the final.

"Sami Khedira was absent from today's workout after medical exams revealed a first grade tear of the soleus muscle in his left calf," read a Juventus statement on their official website.

"The German midfielder will be sidelined for the next two league matches and his availability for the Coppa Italia final will depend upon the results of further tests to be conducted over the coming days and weeks."
