Mutu's injury woes continue
Friday 7 November, 2008

Fiorentina striking star Adrian Mutu has been hit by yet another injury and will miss this weekend's game against Atalanta.

Last season's goal machine has been cursed by fitness problems this term, suffering problems with his elbow and knee.

And now it has been revealed that Mutu tore a muscle in his thigh during Fiorentina's Champions League game against Bayern Munich on Wednesday evening.

The problem isn't too serious, but it will probably keep the ex-Chelsea man on the sidelines for around two weeks.

As well as this weekend's game against Atalanta, Mutu will miss Romania's friendly against Georgia on November 19.

Mutu will undergo physiotherapy, added to the treatment he is still receiving for his recurring knee pain and is hoping to return for November 22's clash against Udinese.

Sources suggest that Mutu will almost certainly be available for the Gigliati's Champions League game against Lyon on November 25.
