Toni and Grosso's teething trouble Tuesday 17 July, 2007

Luca Toni and Fabio Grosso’s international adventures got off on the wrong foot, as both players have already suffered injuries.

Toni is the new star at Bayern Munich, but picked up a knee injury during his first friendly test with the German outfit.

An Albstadt player clattered into the former Fiorentina man and he will be out of action for at least 10 days.

This means Toni will miss out on Saturday’s League Cup encounter with Werder Bremen.

Olympique Lyonnais signing Grosso is yet to make his debut, as he is suffering from lumbago and has been left behind while his teammates tour China.

It is believed that new Coach Alain Perrin would like to experiment the World Cup winning left-back in a central defensive position for Thursday’s friendly against River Plate
