Serious trouble for Antonio Conte: David Neres injured

Heavy headache for Napoli: Antonio Conte will have to do without David Neres for about a month. The outfielder was injured in the last match against Udinese and will most likely miss the big match against Inter on March 2.

"In the final of the match against Udinese David Neres suffered a muscle soreness. The Azzurri player è underwent instrumental examinations today at Pineta Grande Hospital that showed a distractive injury of the semimembranosus of the left thigh" reads the statement issued by Napoli.

Serious trouble for Napoli, which is unable to get into gear up front. The partenopei have scored 39 goals (only the sixth best attack in Serie A) and in as many as 8 there'è the hand of David Neres (2 goalscoring and 6 assists).

Without even Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and with Simeone and Raspadori struggling to take off, Antonio Conte will have to rely totally on Romelu Lukaku, who so far in the league è has 9 goals.
