Juventus coach Max Allegri says Kwadwo Asamoah faces three months out.

The Ghana midfielder will bring forward knee surgery to correct a long-standing issue.

Allegri said: "I think Asamoah will be out for three months, but we need to evaluate his progress. Right now we are not thinking about the transfer market, but if necessary the club will work in January."
