Bologna have announced that Federico Bernardeschi fractured his clavicle during the Supercoppa Italiana semi-final against Inter and will be out for circa six weeks.
The Rossoblu played out the 1-1 draw after 90 minutes in Riyadh last night, going on to win the penalty shoot-out 4-3.
It means they will face Napoli in the EA Sports FC Supercup Final on Monday at 19.00 GMT.

However, Bernardeschi will not be participating in the match, as he went off during the semi-final against Inter when falling heavily onto his left shoulder.
A statement has now confirmed that he fractured his left clavicle and will need to undergo surgery on Tuesday in Bologna.
The recovery time is expected to be circa six weeks.

It is a curious blow for Bologna, who were already missing Remo Freuler for the Supercoppa Italiana because he fractured his clavicle in early November.
Bernardeschi has scored four goals in 22 appearances for the Rossoblu so far this season, between Serie A, the Europa League, Supercoppa and Coppa Italia.
