Como coach, Cesc Fàbregas, has pointed out in a press conference the Italian Federation and the national team for the lack of communication regarding the injury of forward Moise Kean. Fàbregas, who is preparing for the match against Roma, expressed his frustration at not being able to count on the player in the upcoming matches and called for greater coordination between clubs and the federation.
Kean, who played 90 minutes in the Italy-Belgium Nations League match on September 25, was injured after a collision and, despite the injury, continued to play in the following match against France. However, the forward was left out of the squad for the match against Türkiye in Bologna, where the team lost 3-1. According to Fàbregas, Kean “played injured” and “will be out for about ten days”, which affects Como's preparation.
In response, the team's doctor, Angelo De Carli, clarified that the federation's medical staff keeps the clubs informed about the status of the summoned players. “Contact is maintained before, during and after the concentration,” he explained, highlighting that communication has been constant during the break.
Como, which lost 3-0 against Inter after beating Parma, faces Serie A leader Roma tomorrow. The dispute between the coach and the federation highlights the importance of coordination between clubs and national teams for injury management. The next match will be crucial for Como, who are looking to regain their position in the table while keeping an eye on Kean's availability.
