Ghanaian midfielder Moses Odjer will miss Palermo's trip to Virtus Francavilla in the serie C on Sunday.
The former Ghana U-20 star will miss the game due to a discomfort in his abductor.
Despite being a high profile game as Palermo fight to consolidate a play-offs spot, coach Giancomo Fillipi won't risk the player.
Odjer joins Malaury Martin on the sidelines ahead the game on Sunday.
Palermo sit eight in group C of serie B, level on point with Foggia in seventh position and have a good chance of making the play-offs.
Moses Odjer has made 26 appearances this season for Palermo.
