Kean out for Israel clash: striker’s condition revealed | OneFootball

Bad news for coach Gennaro Gattuso, who is forced to do without Moise Kean after the injury sustained on Saturday evening against Estonia.

Italy, Gattuso cannot count on Kean: The striker will return to Florence

Italy will play against Israel on Tuesday evening, but the coach will have to do without his star striker Moise Kean, who left the field in pain at the 15th minute of the first half due to a right ankle sprain. After the initial examinations, the doctors confirmed that the forward would not be available for the next match, and therefore, the former Juve striker will return to Florence to try to recover in view of the match against Milan on Sunday evening at 8:45 PM.

Gattuso, at this point, will have to decide who can replace Kean to play alongside Retegui. The options currently include either bringing in Francesco Pio Esposito (who scored on his debut against Estonia), or moving Raspadori closer as a supporting striker to play around the naturalized forward, with the possible inclusion of a winger between Cambiaso or Spinazzola, who had a good half-hour on Saturday evening.
