Sami Khedira: Juventus midfielder ruled out because of irregular
heartbeat
Juventus midfielder Sami Khedira has been diagnosed with an irregular
heartbeat and will be sidelined while he undergoes treatment.
He will miss Wednesday's Champions League tie at Atletico Madrid to
be treated for atrial arrhythmia.
The condition causes an irregular and often abnormally fast heart
rate and can lead to issues including dizziness, shortness of breath and
tiredness.
Khedira, 31, has only played 15 times this season because of
injuries.
"Sami Khedira remained in Turin for medical examinations, from
which emerged the opportunity to perform an electrophysiological study and
eventual treatment of an atrial arrhythmia which appeared today
[Tuesday]," Juve said in a statement.
