Dybala has picked up a mild to medium thigh muscle strain and he is expected to remain on the sidelines for 30/40 days. Dybala sustained a similar injury last season when he was forced out of action for 48 days.

The Allianz Stadium clash against Tottenham is in program in 36 days, on the 13th of February which means the Argentinean won’t be able to recover in time for the first game of the Champions League knock-out stage.
