Immobile was hurt against Sassuolo

Sigh of relief Lazio for Ciro Immobile: It could have been worse but Maurizio Sarri will still have to do without his center forward ahead of the match valid for the round of 16 of the Italian Cup scheduled for Thursday, January 19 against Bologna.

“The medical staff of S.S. Lazio announces that the player Ciro Immobile underwent clinical and instrumental examinations today at Paideia International Hospital. The examinations showed a first-degree injury to the semitendinosus of the right thigh. The player has already started case-specific treatment and will undergo daily clinical monitoring. Further instrumental examinations will be repeated in the coming days to quantify the recovery time,” reads the note from the biancoceleste club.

The Lazio number 17 will most likely miss not only Bologna but also the league challenges against AC Milan and Fiorentina. The goal is to be back available for the Feb. 6 match against Hellas Verona.
