Turkish midfielder Emirhan Ilkhan had to leave the pitch during the Torino-Udinese match, immediately after the start of the second half, due to a muscle problem. The player, who had entered the pitch in the 60th minute, was forced to leave the pitch after just over twenty minutes of play.
Coach Ignazio Abate confirmed in the press conference that the injury concerns the adductor. According to the information provided by TuttoSport, Ilkhan will undergo specific instrumental tests between today and tomorrow to determine the extent of the injury and establish recovery times. The team will have to evaluate his availability for Monday's trip to Parma, where the player is strongly at risk of not being present.
Meanwhile, the team continued preparation for the next challenge. Ilkhan did not participate in recovery activities at Philadelphia after the victory against Udinese. Abate organized a training session for the most used players, while the rest of the squad, integrated by some elements of the youth team, carried out a high intensity session. The team will have a day of rest before resuming training for the match against the yellow-blues.
The club will monitor the situation on a day-to-day basis, with the aim of ensuring Ilkhan's safe and timely return, if possible, ahead of the next matches.
