Napoli have suffered the loss of David Neres, while Roma await the results of the investigations into Paulo Dybala and Manu Koné. Neres, who came on in the second half of the Champions League match against Villarreal, suffered a muscle strain. The club confirmed that the player suffered low-grade inflammation of the semimembranosus muscle in his right thigh, and that he is already undergoing rehabilitation. According to the medical report, Neres should remain out of the field for around three weeks, with the possibility of returning to play on 8 November against Lazio, unless a longer recovery is necessary in view of the next international breaks.
For Roma, the situation is more complex. Paulo Dybala, who left training during the match against Real Madrid, complained of stiffness in his right calf. Coach Gennaro Gattuso reported general fatigue, but the sports management confirmed that it does not appear to be a serious injury. However, Dybala remains in doubt for Saturday's match against Genoa, where his presence is still uncertain. Meanwhile, Manu Koné was seen with his shirt covering his face and limping due to a right thigh problem. Genoa coach Daniele De Rossi announced the exit of Diego Lopez as sporting director, underlining the need for a long-term approach and solid teamwork.
The future of Nicolò Tresoldi has also been the subject of discussion at an international level. Oliver Bierhoff, former team manager of the German national team, expressed optimism about the player's growth, highlighting his ability to score even in the Champions League and his physical strength. Bierhoff also underlined the importance of a thoughtful choice between the two national teams, suggesting that Germany could benefit from Tresoldi's talent, but reiterated that the decision should not be based solely on sporting criteria.
At club level, Venezia FC has announced the renewal of John Yeboah's contract until 30 June 2030, with an option to extend. The striker, born in 2000, has already made 76 official appearances for the lagoon team, scoring 15 goals and 13 assists. In 2025/26 he contributed decisively to the club's promotion to Serie A, with 12 goals and 11 assists in the league and Italian Cup. The renewal confirms the importance of Yeboah for Venezia's long-term strategy.
With these developments, Napoli will have to recalibrate their squad in defense of the attack, while Roma prepares to manage the uncertainties of their key attackers. Tresoldi's future remains uncertain, but the prospects of a German move could influence his international career. Meanwhile, Venezia continues to consolidate its position in Serie A thanks to Yeboah's contribution, while Serie A approaches a new championship full of surprises and rivalries.
