Casadei new last minute problem for Torino against Inter | OneFootball

Cesare Casadei is a last-minute absentee for Torino in tonight’s Coppa Italia quarter-final against Inter, meaning 10 players are ruled out.

It kicks off on neutral turf at the U-Power Stadium in Monza at 20.00 GMT (21.00 CET).

The winners will be decided after 90 minutes, or go directly into a penalty shoot-out, so there is no provision for extra time.

Whoever goes through will then play either Napoli or Como in the semi-final.

Casadei had been tipped to start in midfield for the Granata, but his name was not on the squad list released this afternoon.

This is because the former Chelsea player is suffering from flu symptoms and is therefore not available.

It adds to the list of absentees for coach Marco Baroni, who is also missing Giovanni Simeone, Ardian Ismajli, Gvidas Gineitis, Ivan Ilic, Zakaria Aboukhlal, Niels Nkounkou, Cristiano Biraghi, Perr Schuurs and Zanos Savva.

January signings Luca Marianucci, Rafa Obrador, Matteo Prati and Sandro Kulenovic are all included in the group travelling to Monza.

It is played on neutral turf because San Siro is preparing for the Winter Olympics opening ceremony.
