Juve?s captain is now at risk of missing some big March fixtures. When Danilo crashed back down to the Bentegodi turf after going up for a header in the second half of Saturday night?s 2-2 draw with Hellas Verona and his landing looked anything but graceful, you knew something was up. Of course, seeing the Brazilian defender quickly crumble to the ground was a pretty good hint, but the simple fact that it was not a soft landing gave you the hint that he would have to grit things out the rest of the way.
While Juve received some good news in terms of things potentially being worse, they?re now looking at another period of time where their captain is out injured.
Juventus announced Sunday that Danilo underwent tests at J Medical on his injured left ankle that was clearly not right in the final minutes of the draw with Hellas Verona. The club has ruled out ?ligament damage and any fractures? for Danilo, but suffering a sprained ankle will mean that he is certainly going to miss Juventus? final game of February against Frosinone next weekend and could very well the game or two after that against Napoli and Atalanta. While Juventus continued their new tradition of not laying out a timetable for how long a player will be out and instead saying he ?will continue to be evaluated day by day,? reports in the Italian press say that Danilo will likely be out a couple of weeks with his ankle injury.
