Genoa, one striker sits out for at least two weeks

Genoa, a striker stops for at least two weeks

Stop for at least two weeks, after which he will be reevaluated, for Genoa's Portuguese striker Vitinha. The player had stopped in the second half of the challenge with Venezia last Monday complaining of a flexor problem that the examinations to which he è underwent today confirmed.

It is a muscle sprain that will be reevaluated in two weeks. The player will therefore definitely miss the matches with Inter and Empoli and is unlikely to be available for the away match in Cagliari.

The return appears possible, also considering the previous clinical picture of the player who has already stopped two in the season for muscular problems, missing five matches between October and November and two last month after complaining of a similar problem in the away match in Lecce in the first match of 2005, just in view of the return match with the Salentini scheduled on March 16 at the Ferraris even if the subsequent stop could incline the club not to force the timing.

Meanwhile, only the convalescent players worked today at the Signorini, in addition to Vitinha the unavailable players are Ahanor, Thorsby and Badelj, while the group will resume training tomorrow in view of Saturday night’s match against Inter Milan.
