  • He felt a muscle pull and went off, opening the door for youth player Romano to make his first-team debut.
  • Medical exams showed a mild lesion in his left thigh, with an initial estimate of about two weeks out.
  • He will miss the next league match against Sassuolo and will be evaluated for upcoming Coppa Italia and league fixtures.
