Report – Cagliari Suffer Huge Injury Blow Ahead Of Inter Milan Clash As Italian Wingback In Doubt | OneFootball

Cagliari star Gabriele Zappa could reportedly miss Saturday’s home Serie A match against title-bidding Inter Milan.

According to L’Unione Sarda via FCInterNews, the Sardinians’ wingback is struggling with a thigh injury.

Formerly linked with a move to San Siro, Gabriele Zappa has become a crucial player for Cagliari in recent years.

Indeed, his signature runs down the right flank have made him one of Serie A’s most threatening defenders.

However, Cagliari might be without their talisman on Saturday.

Zappa had to come off during Cagliari’s Coppa Italia clash against Frosinone on Tuesday.

Indeed, the 25-year-old reportedly felt discomfort in the rectus femoris of his left thigh.

Therefore, Fabio Pisacane’s medical staff will have to evaluate his condition before the game.

Yet, there’s a genuine possibility for the Italian ace to remain on the sidelines.
