Emre Can has undergone successful surgery on a thyroid nodule, Juventus have announced.
The Italian champions confirmed that following specialist medical examinations in Germany, Can has had an operation on the issue and is now in recovery.
"The operation was carried out today in Frankfurt by Professor Vorlaender, in the presence of Dr Claudio Rigo and was a complete success," a statement on the club's official website said.
"The prognosis for the resumption of physical activity will be better assessed in the coming days."
Can has made eight Serie A appearances this season, having joined on a four-year deal from Liverpool on a free transfer in June.
He could now miss Juve's next home game against Cagliari at the Allianz Stadium on Saturday, as well as the Champions League return match with Manchester United four days later.
