Injured Sneijder out for two weeks

Milan: Inter Milan playmaker Wesley Sneijder has been diagnosed with a strained muscle in his right leg, ruling him out for about 20 days.

The Netherlands stand-out was slated to be included in Inter's starting XI, but was injured during the pre-match warm-up for Inter's 2-1 win over Cagliari in Serie A on Saturday.

A test on Sunday morning revealed that the player has suffered a second-degree strain of the rectus femoris muscle in his right leg.

Sneijder will miss Inter's Champions League match at Trabzonspor on Tuesday and could also sit out against CSKA Moscow two weeks later. Inter need just one point from their remaining two matches to reach the next round.

Inter are at the top of Group B in the Champions League, with nine points from four games, whereas Trabzonspor are third, with four points fewer.

Defenders Lucio and Yuto Nagatomo, meanwhile, have recovered from injuries and were included in the squad for the trip to Turkey.
