Juventus have been boosted by the news that Arturo Vidal
is unlikely to miss any club action, despite picking up a thigh injury.
The Chile international was withdrawn with five minutes
to go in Juve's dominant 3-0 Serie A win over Napoli on Sunday.
Vidal will link up with his international team-mates for
their upcoming friendlies with England at Wembley and Brazil in Toronto, Canada.
He has been prescribed a week's rest so is highly
unlikely to feature against Roy Hodgson's side, but will be able to feature
against the 2014 FIFA World Cup hosts.
A Juventus statement read: "Vidal, who left the
action early last night against Napoli due to an injury that has this morning
been confirmed as a strain to the adductor muscle of his right thigh, has been
prescribed seven to eight days of rest.
"He is still set to join up with the Chile squad
barring a decision to the contrary by the Chilean Football Federation."
The midfielder will then resume club duties for Juventus
when they travel to Livorno on November 24, before hosting Copenhagen in a
crucial UEFA Champions League tie three days later.
Chile qualified for the World Cup after finishing third
in the CONMEBOL section, three points clear of fifth-placed Uruguay.
