Roma's "Lazio" team will have to do without one of their attacking leaders, Miroslav Klose, for a while.

The German national team footballer returned to his homeland for further treatment and will be unable to play for about two weeks after a foot operation.

However, the 35-year-old striker will only be able to put on the "Lazio" jersey after the international break, when the Rome club will face "Atalanta".

This season, M. Klose has scored a goal and made two assists in four matches played in the "Serie A" championship.
