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.
