Salernitana, Mazzocchi stops for national team

Injury to Mazzocchi

Bad news for Salernitana: one of the happiest notes for the granata in this first part of the season, Pasquale Mazzocchi, was forced to leave Thursday’s training session at Coverciano, following an injury.

There are no updates yet on the condition of the Granata side, but he will most likely not be available to Roberto Mancini for the friendly against Austria.

This is the second major loss for the Azzurri national team’s coach: in fact, on Wednesday evening, during the match against Albania, AC Milan midfielder Sandro Tonali went off on a stretcher following a bad fall.

Mazzocchi is back from a first part of the season in which he was one of the protagonists among Nicola’s men: the former Venezia and Parma among others in fact always started as a starter in the 15 games played, scoring two goals and serving two assists.
