Juventus could recall Pol Lirola early from his loan spell at Sassuolo to assuage the injury crisis in defence.
The 19-year-old Spaniard has impressed this season, scoring one goal and providing one assist in 14 competitive games.
He is meant to remain on loan at the Mapei Stadium until June 2018, but the Juventus problems could change that plan.
Dani Alves has fractured his fibula and will be out for at least a couple of months, while Stephan Lichtsteiner is not on the Champions League squad list.

Dani Alves has fractured his fibula and will be out for at least a couple of months, while Stephan Lichtsteiner is not on the Champions League squad list.
As Sassuolo are now out of the Europa League, they need to whittle down the squad at Coach Eusebio Di Francesco’s disposal.
Fichajes report that Juventus are prepared to call Lirola back to Turin in January to provide a valuable alternative at right-back.
