Rrahmani, hamstring injury confirmed: sidelined, rehab underway | OneFootball

Napoli will have to do without Amir Rrahmani for several weeks. The Kosovar defender has returned to Castel Volturno after his commitments with his national team due to an injury that forced him to leave the retreat early.

Napoli, anxiety for Rrahmani: confirmed hamstring injury, rehabilitation started at Castel Volturno

In the last match played against Switzerland, Rrahmani had complained of muscle discomfort that forced him to stop. The first checks carried out in Kosovo had already highlighted a low-grade injury to the hamstring of the right thigh, a hypothesis then also confirmed by the instrumental exams that the player underwent in Italy, at the Pineta Grande Hospital.

Napoli has released an official report that clarifies the extent of the stop: "Following the injury occurred in the match between Switzerland and Kosovo, the Azzurri defender underwent instrumental exams at the Pineta Grande Hospital, which confirmed the outcome of the first checks carried out in the National team: low-grade injury of the right thigh's hamstring. Rrahmani has already started the rehabilitation process". The diagnosis, although not being the most severe, will force the central defender to miss several important matches in the league and Champions League. The recovery times have not been officially communicated, but in similar cases the prognosis generally varies between three and four weeks. This is a heavy absence for Conte, who relies heavily on Rrahmani's defensive leadership. Waiting for the return, the coach will be forced to redesign the rearguard, relying on rotations with Beukema and Marianucci.
