Hamstring Strain Sidelining Leonardo Spinazzola Strips Napoli Options
SSC Napoli full-back Leonardo Spinazzola has been ruled out of Sunday’s Serie A fixture against Fiorentina after sustaining a mild strain in the hamstring of his right thigh. The Italian defender missed full squad training on Friday following the physical setback, confirming his absence for the trip to Florence.
Defensive Strain Forces Selection Adjustments Under Massimiliano Allegri
The loss of the full-back compresses Massimiliano Allegri’s options across the defensive line ahead of a challenging away match. Spinazzola’s forced departure from group work adds to an extensive list of unavailable squad members that includes Frank Zambo Anguissa, Alessandro Buongiorno, Luca Marianucci, Scott McTominay, Giovane, Alex Meret, and Alisson Santos.

clubAnguissa continued individual conditioning work away from the primary group during Friday’s session, limiting midfield rotation options. Allegri must reconfigure his starting composition across multiple areas as the club attempts to build on a recent 1-0 Serie A victory over Bologna at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
