(Reuters) - Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella is out with a thigh injury, the Serie A side said on Tuesday, and will miss at least the next two games for the Italian champions.
The 27-year-old Italy international, who has made 175 league appearances for Inter, has a strain in the rectus femoris of his right thigh, the club said in a statement.
"His condition will be reassessed next week," the statement added.
Inter, sixth in the standings with eight points from five matches, visit Udinese on Saturday, before hosting Red Star Belgrade in a Champions League clash on Tuesday.
