ALESSNADRO NESTA is out for another week, as his injury has not recovered as yet. The Italian is set to miss the upcoming Coppa Italia and Serie A matches.

The stalwart picked up an injury during AC Milan’s Siena victory, and despite it seemed very small, it has kept him away for one match, and apparently, for two more, as Nesta suffers from an injury in his right thigh.

Alessandro missed the clash against Inter Milan on Sunday night, when Milan lost 2-0, and his absence was well-felt, as the middle of the defense was not the same without the experienced defender.

Now, apparently, the 33-year-old is set to miss the Coppa Italia match against Udinese Calcio, as well as the Serie A clash against Livorno on Sunday noon. It appears Nesta would return in two weeks, in time for Bologna.

Sandro is keeping on working with the club’s physiotherapist and alone at the gym of Milanello. Nesta is not in the squad for Udinese, but this is the squad, which has been published by Milan Coach Leonardo for the match:

Abbiati, Roma, Abate, Antonini, Bonera, De Vito (n°56), Favalli, Jankulovski, Kaladze, Thiago Silva, Zambrotta, Ambrosini, Flamini, Gattuso, Pirlo, Borriello, Di Gennaro, Huntelaar, Inzaghi, Verdi (n°58), Zigoni (n°17).

Nesta is one of the injury-list that includes Massimo Oddo, Oguchi Onyewu, and Alexandre Pato. Besides them, David Beckham and Clarence Seedorf and Ronaldinho won’t play against Udinese, due to different reasons.
