National Breaks Lead to Multiple Injuries Across Serie A Clubs

These days of league breaks for national teams have served Luciano Spalletti to better prepare Italy for the Euros 2024. The same goes for the other nations of our continent and their technical commissioners, even if club coaches certainly did not appreciate these two weeks away from the fields. There have been many injuries these days, especially in Serie A where as many as 10 players have stopped. A number that does not leave fans indifferent, let alone insiders, especially those of Roma who saw as many as 4 players stop, more than any other Italian club. Juan Jesus on Acerbi: "Bewildered by the decision, I don't understand how 'you're just a negro' is not a discriminatory phrase" Roma: four injured during the break Roma is the team that has suffered the most stops these days. In total there are four and they are Romelu Lukaku, Sardar Azmoun, Edoardo Bove, and Tommaso Baldanzi. The first stopped due to a hip problem that forced him not to play the match against Ireland in Brighton. After a moment of initial fright, the Belgian striker of Congolese origins returned to training Monday with his national teammates and De Rossi was able to breathe a sigh of relief. Azmoun had the worst in these two weeks with instrumental exams carried out by Iran that showed a strain of the left thigh flexor. The stop came during the match against Turkmenistan, which ended 2-0, in which the former Bayer Leverkusen stopped at the 88'. For now, the injury is such that the striker will be out for about a month. Edoardo Bove had to leave the Italy Under 21 camp due to a trauma to his left foot. After the stop, the midfielder returned to Trigoria and today he trained with his teammates. The same goes for Tommaso Baldanzi, who was sent home after the stop with the Azzurrini. Fatigue to the left adductor: this is the diagnosis for the external attacker who, however, joined today's session at Trigoria with his teammates. Inter without Sommer and De Vrij Simone Inzaghi cannot be happy about this national break in which both Yann Sommer and Stefan De Vrij were stopped. The Swiss goalkeeper reported an ankle problem during his match with Denmark. Initially, the problem seemed more serious than expected, but instrumental exams showed that the thirty-five-year-old only suffered a sprained ankle. Different, however, is the situation of De Vrij. The central defender reported a muscle strain to the long adductor of the right thigh. Most likely, the Dutch defender will not be there on Monday against Cagliari, but his return could be for the next round against Udinese. Atalanta and the double blow De Ketelaere-Koopmeiners Gasperini does not smile after this break for national teams. The Atalanta coach, in fact, saw both Teun Koopmeiners and Charles De Ketelaere stop. The first reported a problem to the calf that casts doubt on his presence with Napoli. Instrumental exams highlighted traumatic-distractive aftermath at the proximal insertion of the lower left leg muscle. De Ketelaere reported a slight problem to the adductors that forced him not to leave with Belgium. Instrumental exams highlighted distractive aftermath to the right muscle and his presence with Napoli is in doubt. Milan: fear for Kjaer During Denmark-Switzerland not only Sommer was injured, but also Simon Kjaer. The central defender left the field early due to a muscle discomfort asking for a substitution at the 65' of the match. The former Roma, however, admitted to having felt a slight discomfort and preferred to stop early also considering the moment of the season. Instrumental exams carried out by Denmark did not show muscle lesions. Lucca stops: alarm for Udinese Not only problems for the big Serie A teams, but also for the small ones with Udinese losing Lucca. The central striker stopped with the National team with which he reported a flexor problem. However, the instrumental exams to which the striker submitted did not show lesions and the central tip could only skip the match with Inter.
