Reports are emerging of a new and potentially serious injury concern for Napoli: Rasmus Hojlund might miss tonight’s crucial Serie A encounter with Milan. The match is set to kick off at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona at 7:45 PM UK time (8:45 PM CEST).
New Injury Concern for Hojlund
It was previously believed that Antonio Conte’s injury crisis was easing, with Kevin De Bruyne, Scott McTominay, and André-Frank Zambo Anguissa all expected to start this evening. However, several key players remain sidelined, including Romelu Lukaku, David Neres, Giovanni Di Lorenzo, and Amir Rrahmani.
According to Italian reports, there are fears that Hojlund could also miss the game due to an injury sustained while on international duty. The exact nature of his condition has not been specified, but his participation in the upcoming match is highly uncertain.
With Lukaku currently sidelined after refusing to return early from Belgium, preferring to receive treatment there rather than with the club’s medical staff, Napoli has very limited options for the central striker position. Consequently, Giovane might be deployed in this role instead, potentially supported by De Bruyne.
