Portugal national team defender Miguel Veloso will miss approximately six weeks due to a shin injury.
Veloso suffered the injury during a weekend Serie A match against "Bari." The defender was ready to represent the national team in the European Championship qualifiers, but doctors prohibited him from playing.
Later Veloso underwent further tests, which revealed that he will be out of action for more than a month. As a result, he will definitely miss the national team matches against Denmark and Iceland.
