According to a report on the club's official website, FC Zurich coach
Bernard Challandes (pictured) will have to make do without versatile
attacker Johan Vonlanthen as the former PSV starlet has
endured a recovery setback.
The 23-year-old sustained a thigh injury in the 6-1 defeat by Olympique de Marseille on Matchday 4 of the Champions League and was forced to leave the pitch only nine minutes into the game due to the problem.
Vonlanthen has not played since, but was expected to return to match action in Wednesday's Champions League game against Real Madrid. However, he requires another two weeks to recover.
The Swiss international is therefore doubtful for the visit of Milan on December 8. Zurich pulled off a shock 1-0 win in the away game against the Rossoneri earlier this campaign.
