Antonio Cassano out for the season?

Inter Milan could be without Antonio Cassano for the remainder of the campaign.

The Italian striker picked up a hamstring injury during Sunday's 4-3 defeat to Atalanta.

Following a scan on the problem, it has been revealed that the 31-year-old has suffered a grade two tear of the muscle.

As a result of that news, a short statement on the club's official website said that Cassano would be out for "30-40 days".

He will now join fellow strikers Diego Milito and Rodrigo Palacio on the sidelines.
