Juventus’s Bosnian midfielder Hasan Salihamidzic will be out of action for the next four weeks after undergoing surgery on a damaged knee, the club said on Wednesday.

Salihamidzic, who has spent much of the season in the treatment room, injured his knee during the opening exchanges of Sunday’s 3-3 draw at home to Chievo.

Meanwhile, Juve have reached an agreement with Portuguese centre-back Jorge Andrade to terminate his contract with the club, leaving him a free agent.

The former Portuguese international joined Juventus in 2007 after the club had rebounded from its relegation to Serie B for match fixing.

However, Andrade suffered a broken knee-cap early on in his Juve career and missed almost the entire 2007-08 season.

He returned during the pre-season for the current campaign but suffered another serious knee injury, resulting in Juventus affectively deciding his career with them was over.

He has played 50 times for Portugal and previously played for FC Porto and Deportivo La Coruna.
