Juventus striker David Trezeguet will be sidelined for a month after injuring a calf muscle in training.

Trezeguet picked up the injury on Friday. It leaves Juventus struggling for striking options with captain Alessandro Del Piero just returning from a knee injury.

The team will now rely on Amauri and Vincenzo Iaquinta to lead the attack against Udinese on Sunday.

Trezeguet has returned to form this year, scoring six league goals following a season disrupted by injury.
