In evaluation the injury to the right thigh of the blue. On both sides, Gotti is already struggling with the efforts of Molina
UDINE. On the day of the final farewell from Stefano Okaka who has signed a two-year contract (plus an option) of one million euros per season with the Turks of Basaksehir, Udinese remains in suspense for another Nigerian from Italy, the young Destiny Udogie, returned injured from the double engagement with the Under 21 team.
And this is not a minor detail, because this mishap could affect Luca Gotti’s choices in view of the away match in La Spezia, where the Bianconeri will resume the championship at the end of this first stop reserved for the national team.
The 2002 class, taken from Verona during the summer, stopped just over a quarter of an hour before the end of the match played and won in Vicenza by the Italian team against Montenegro, as part of the qualifications for the final phase of the next European championship. category.
A stop dictated by a muscle strain in the right thigh to unfortunately end a game played with good personality in advance. A problem that immediately alerted the Udinese medical staff who, however, decided to evaluate the extent of the injury only tomorrow, through the usual instrumental tests that will lead to the diagnosis.
The hope is that it is only a problem without the feared injury that would involve a more or less long stop, depending on the extent of the “damage”. But even if it were a simple fatigue (linked to the rhythms of this start of the season for all the national teams), Udinese could choose not to risk Udogie. Ultimately we are only at the beginning of a month that will propose four games in the space of 14 days.
The possible forfeit of the Azzurri, however, would not be the best for Gotti who would see the range of choices on the flanks reduced for the match against Spezia, also thanks to the commitments of another national, the Argentine Nahuel Molina who will face the challenge of qualification for the World Cup against Bolivia, at the Monumental in Buenos Aires, only in the Italian night between today and tomorrow, when here it will be 1.30. In short, it will only be available on Saturday, with the hardships of an intercontinental trip on its shoulders.
All clues that lead to a probable non-ownership of Molina for the match at the Picco stadium.
Here, by the light of the nose, Gotti could have solved the problem with the Danish Stryger Larsen who is also busy with his national team who, however, will leave tomorrow evening, at the end of the match in Chisinau against Moldova. As a good joker it can also be used on the right, where the newcomer Brandon Soppy could perhaps be a risk, given the few workouts in the legs with the black and white on. But on the left, without Udogie, the alternative would be the enigmatic Marvin Zeegelaar who lately is also employed in the defensive trio.
Hypothesis. It is better to wait first for the verdict on the blue Udogie. Fingers crossed.
