Midfielder sidelined with thigh injury
Chievo midfielder Luciano is set to be sidelined for six to eight weeks due to injury.
Luciano had to be substituted in only the 17th minute of Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Brescia.
Scans have since revealed that he suffered damage to the right thigh and is likely to be out of action for some time.
The 34-year-old could be missing for up to two months, meaning he will have to watch a large number of key games from the touchline.
Chievo have made a strong start to the season, winning three of their opening four Serie A games to sit second in the table.
And Luciano, who has been with the club for a decade, has been in fine form over the past few weeks.
