Jovetic was on the scoresheet in Sunday's 4-1 victory over Cagliari, but then left the field with a leg injury midway through the second half.

Scans have now revealed Jovetic has a grade one tear to his soleus muscle which will sideline him for 10 to 14 days, according to a short statement on the club's official website.

Jovetic, who has scored six league goals this season, is certain to miss Sunday's trip to AC Milan and possibly the visit of Atalanta a week later.
