Zanetti And Chiellini: Test Results
As was planned, Monday was dedicated to medical tests for the injured players. Cristiano Zanetti and Giorgio Chiellini, who left the field early during the Saturday match against Cagliari underwent magnetic resonance tests under Professor Carlo Faletti at the CTO in Turin.
Zanetti was diagnosed with having suffered a second degree injury to the semi-membranous muscle of the left thigh. Such an injury fore-sees therapy for a period of between 50 and 60 days and a return to sporting activities within 75 days.
Chiellini who also underwent tests was diagnosed with having suffered an inflammatory swell to the region below the left femoral biceps. Recovery and return to the field will take around 15 to 20 days and therefore Giorgio should be available for the first leg of the match against Chelsea valid for the last sixteen of the Champions League.
Two bianconeri halted and two are once again available for Claudio Ranieri as from the Wednesday match valid for the Coppa Italia. In fact the Juventus coach has welcomed back Giovinco and Manninger who today trained regularly with their team-mates.
With regards to Camoranesi, his availability for the match against Napoli will depend on the outcome of the training session on Tuesday.

So sad to see yet another injury for Zanetti, who was just getting into play rythm. And Chiellini, we desperately need him back! Maybe we'll see Ariaudo play again.
Great job on the blog by the way, this is amazing dedication with the latest information.
Forza Juve!
