Holm also stops, Zortea is already ready. From Moro to Bernardeschi, the coach launches possible solutions in view of the restart

November 17 – 12:00 – BOLOGNA

But then say it. That bad luck sees clearly and that a season like this will first have to compensate Bologna. All we were missing was it stop by Emil Holm. Today instrumental tests, but two or three weeks seem standard. Less difficult. For him we talk about injury to the right rectus femoris. He got it in the national team, during his Sweden’s match against Switzerland. The rossoblù’s count thus reached seven. A good number, but one that doesn’t scare either Bologna or Vincenzo Italiano, let alone. He was the one who wanted a long bench to deal with emergency situations like this. And therefore Bologna with Udine on the horizon, for the resumption of Serie A, has the means to make up for it also to this series of injuries. Starting with Holm. The Swedish full-back (who was also in good form) will be replaced by Zortea. The Italian winger thus has the opportunity to have his say and show off in a phase of the season that is starting to get hot.

So many possibilities

Holm is just the latest in a series of stops. On Saturday evening, after the match, the first rumors spoke of a minor problem. A first assessment has already been carried out with doctors in Sweden, there is talk of one slight injury. But the sensations and the first findings are one thing, the cold tests that Holm will carry out at Isokinetic today, upon returning under the two towers, are another. Emil joins the usual suspects these days: goalkeepers Skorupski And Ravagliathe attacking wingers Cambiaghi And Rowethe all-rounder Freulerand of course Ciro Immobile. The situation is not tragic, but annoying yes. One week before the match in Friuli, Italiano can recover a couple of items. Important, of course. The first is Ravaglia. Tomorrow, when training resumes, the rossoblù goalkeeper will check his conditions. Should he not make it, there is the golden baby Massimo Pessina, already an amulet against Napoli. The other recovery in view of the match against Udinese is Motionless. A return expected for almost four monthsbut which for many reasons will not be linked to its use. To recover, as we know, it takes time.

Other choices

If Skorupski and Freuler have an objective (to recover for the Super Cup in Arabia in December), the others are waiting to do the work at the medical center of excellence in Bologna to return to one hundred percent. But the good news is another: Bologna’s squad is organicbuilt with criteria, long. To say: Zortea is not the only Italian option, it is there too De Silvestri that may have a chance. And for the midfield, in place of Freuler there is a mini-list to go through: Moro (the most reliable), but also Pobega, Sulemana or Fabbian. Just move the board a bit and evaluate. Not that they’re happy in Casteldebole, eh. The moment is for garlic and propitiatory rites. But knowing that you have a squad with valid substitutes reassures everyone a bit. Even in Cambiaghi’s place there isn’t just one option in play. The number one replacement is Dominguez (great opportunity for him), but there are other possibilities like that of Odgaard winger (already used in that position in the past, and also recently against Brann) or, in a game of Chinese boxes, also Bernardeschi. Certainly many of the legitimate uncertainties of these hours in Casteldebole will vanish starting tomorrow, when the group will begin to have the players employed in their respective national teams back. As long as nothing else happens in the meantime.
