Lobotka provides new injury problem for Napoli

Just as Napoli’s treatment room starts to empty out, they have a new problem to deal with, as Stanislav Lobotka was hurt in training today.

The Partenopei have been struggling with a massive injury crisis throughout the entire campaign, at times with an entire XI out of action.

Kevin De Bruyne resumed training yesterday, four months after sustaining a serious hamstring tear, and could be on the bench against Torino on Friday.

David Neres, Giovanni Di Lorenzo and Amir Rrahmani are certainly going to be out of action for this round.
