Albert Gudmundsson: Gilardino reveals return date

Despite being eliminated in the round of 16 of the Coppa Italia, which came at the hands of Lazio, who è imposed 1-0 on Genoa, Alberto Gilardino has a reason to smile. In fact, there is very little time left until the return of Albert Gudmundsson, who has been out since the last national team break due to a muscular sprain, as announced by the Rossobl&ugrave coach himself.

"I hope that maximum Thursday he will be in the group to have him available again on Sunday at Monza" said the Grifone coach to Mediaset microphones after the defeat with the biancocelesti. Only rest instead for Messias: "È remained rested, we also kept Badelj for Sunday. We have to tighten up and stay compact at this moment. To save ourselves forò we have to go strong in training" too.

The coach of the Ligurian club also spoke about Retegui, explaining the change: "He had two goal balls despite not creating so much as a team. The change? played the whole game with Empoli and I could not risk losing such a player again, like Badelj and Messias. Then there's Sunday, which è a crucial game. Gudmundsson, Retegui, Malinovskyi and Messias always better to have them, then it has to be the coach who is good at finding the balance. We will need to find the right balance, they give leg, foot and quality to the team. I want to see them all together becauseé due to injuries I have never had them available together".
