Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba is out for seven days with a sprained right ankle suffered while training with the France squad, the club confirmed.

The injury occurred after the 22-year-old collided with Yohan Cabaye, according to Jonathan Johnson of ESPN FC, and ironically Crystal Palace then deputised for him in the starting 11 on Thursday, bagging a goal in France's 4-0 dismissal of Armenia.

The three-time Serie A winner will also miss out on Sunday's friendly in Denmark.

Pogba returned to Italy and is expected to be available for the trip to Inter Milan on Oct. 18.
