While Napoli is navigating commitments and challenges this football season, a new cloud is gathering over the team's blue sky: André-Frank Zambo Anguissa's injury.

In a crucial phase, the team will have to deal with the lack of a key element in his tactical scheme. Here's everything you need to know about Anguissa's absence and how it could impact the dynamics of the game, especially at a time when Victor Osimhen is also unavailable.

Anguissa's injury, a well-known muscular problem

Déjà vu is in the air. Yes, because Anguissa, one of the pillars of Napoli's midfield, suffered a muscle injury during the match against Fiorentina. This kind of injury it is not new to the player, and raises quite a few concerns about how resilient it might be in the long run.

How long will Anguissa be out?

It's the question everyone is asking. As reported by Tuttosport, the Anguissa's return is in the planning stage. It is certain that the midfielder will have to miss the next three matches or those against:

  • Verona,
  • Union Berlin,
  • Milan

So, get comfortable, because Anguissa won't be on the field for a while.

What does it mean for Napoli now that Osimhen is also injured?

As if that wasn't enough, fate seems to have put a spoke in Napoli's wheels even with Victor Osimhen's injury.

The simultaneous absence of these two key players could turn into a real headache for the coach. He will therefore have to rack his brains to find valid alternatives that can keep the boat afloat in this stormy period.
