After the great joy for the comeback victory against Juventus, Napoli Luciano Spalletti training resumes today with a new objective: to do well in the Europa League debut against Leicester.

The Certaldo coach prepares the 11 to send onto the field: the main doubts concern Insigne, Osimhen and Mario Rui, who came out of Saturday's match in bad shape. The captain suffered a contused trauma to his right knee: nothing to worry about, given that the staff is evaluating his call-up for Thursday.

Choice that will most likely be made on the day of departure for England (i.e. Wednesday). Naples doesn't want to take any risks and will remain cautious about using number 24 even if called up: it is currently difficult for him to start from the start.

Spalletti hopes to have it back available Zielinski, almost completely recovered, while the conditions of Osimhen and Mario Rui are a bit more worrying. The two, according to the Gazzetta dello Sport, left due to muscle fatigue and will be evaluated in the next two days.

Furthermore, Napoli is waiting for news from the Nigerian striker.UEFA to resolve the situation related to the anti-Covid regulations that would block him and Ospina from the English trip because they are returning from trips to "red zones".
