Every member of Serie A hurt during the intermission.
During the international break, a number of Serie A players were injured; Napoli and Atalanta appear to have been the most severely hit.
With five games on Saturday and five on Monday when Serie A returns this weekend, many clubs will have to play without players who were injured during the international break.
Stefano Pioli announced during a press conference on Friday that Simon Kjaer will not be playing for Milan when they travel to Florence to play Fiorentina. While on international duty, the Danish player sustained a muscular injury.
But with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia out for the Partenopei and Charles De Ketelaere missing for La Dea’s trip to the Stadio Maradona, Napoli and Atalanta appear to be the most impacted. Conversely, Teun Koopmeiners might recuperate in time for Nerazzurri’s crucial matchup with the Serie A champions.
After recovering from an ankle injury sustained while playing for the Swiss national team, Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer is anticipated to start on Monday against Empoli. Due to an adductor problem, Stefan de Vrij will miss the match against the Tuscans.
Due to a serious hamstring injury sustained while playing for Iran, Roma attacker Azmoun will not be available in Lecce on Monday.
Talent from Verona, Tomas Suslov, will be out for almost a month with an ankle ligament injury he suffered playing for Slovakia. Lorenzo Lucca of Udinese, who was also unable to make his senior Azzurri debut, is doubtful for an away encounter against Sassuolo because of a minor muscle injury he acquired while playing for Italy’s national team.
