Naples, Alessandro Buongiorno knocked out: back on the market

Bad news has arrived, in the Napoli household, from the Pineta Grande Hospital, where medical examinations have been carried out aimed at understanding the'extent of the injury that occurred in training to Alessandro Buongiorno: for the defender a rather long stop is expected, which will force the Parthenopean management to return to the market to reduce the emergency in the back sector.

"Alessandro Buongiorno è injured today in training – we read in the note of the societyà -. The blue defender, following a fall, he è procured, as evidenced by the examinations sustained at the Pineta Grande Hospital, a fracture of the transverse processes of two lumbar vertebrae. Good morning from tomorrow will startà rehabilitation".

Although the recovery time has not been disclosed, è it is possible that the management will move early to arrive at the beginning of January already with a replacement to put at the disposal of Antonio Conte: the most popular name è that of Jakub Kiwior, former Spezia, now at Arsenal. The Polish defender has already opened, in recent months, to a return to Italy and the Napoli è option is still viable.

In any case, Buongiorno's injury removes one of the regular starters from Antonio Conte, who had deployed him for virtually every game in which he had him available since his move from Torino to the Neapolitan club. The defender also scored a goal in his new team’s jersey last Sept. 15 against Cagliari.
