Daniele De Rossi will miss Roma's Champions League trip to CSKA Moscow, head coach Eusebio Di Francesco confirmed.
De Rossi was injured in the first half of Roma's last match, a 1-1 draw away to Napoli, in what was his 450th Serie A appearance.
And the club captain will miss Saturday's trip to Fiorentina as well as the Group G game away to CSKA four days later.
"De Rossi won't be involved against Fiorentina or CSKA - and he may miss the Sampdoria game too," Di Francesco told a news conference.
