Lozano and Koulibaly Make Last Minute Recovery?
In a surprising twist, it looks like Kalidou Koulibaly and Hirving Lozano might be able to play for Napoli against FC Torino in spite of the fact that they had previously been announced as injured.
Its good news for Gennaro Gattuso ahead of an important Serie A game. Gli Azzuri have been without some of their most important players in recent weeks. For example, the attacking players Victor Osimhen and Dries Mertens are due to miss more games through injury.
However, tonight’s match against Torino might have just gotten easier. Defender Kalidou Koulibaly and attacking-midfielder Hirving Lozano suffered minor injuries in the team’s previous match against Lazio.
Reports from Stadio Diego Maradona seem to confirm that the medical staff for the Naples team has managed to recover both players ahead of the tonight’s fixtures. The two players have been included on the team sheet provided to officials ahead of the game.
Napoli is currently in fourth place. The team was awarded today an additional point that had previously been deducted after the match between Gli Azzuri and Juventus was canceled. Meanwhile, FC Torino is in 19th place and looks to face a serious struggle to stay up this season.
