Milan goalkeeper Diego Lopez will be sidelined for at least two weeks with a thigh injury.

Lopez sustained the injury while attempting to reach Mattia De Sciglio's goalbound backpass during the closing stages of Sunday's 5-4 win at Parma.

Milan says Lopez has a right thigh injury and will be reevaluated in a couple of weeks.

Lopez, who was signed from Real Madrid on a free transfer in the offseason, will miss Milan's Serie A matches against three-time defending champion Juventus, Empoli and Cesena. He will be replaced either by Christian Abbiati or Michael Agazzi.

Milan also says defender Alex is struggling with bruising to a muscle in his right thigh and will undergo tests in the next few days.
