Francesco Calzona, the coach of Napoli, has finalized his team selection for tonight’s Serie A match against Torino, opting to exclude two players who are currently sidelined due to injury.
In recent weeks, Napoli, under the guidance of their Slovakian coach, has shown signs of improvement, notably by securing a resounding 6-1 victory over Sassuolo on the road and clinching a crucial 2-1 win against Juventus at home. These results have injected a sense of confidence into the team amid what has been a tumultuous season.
In their Champions League Round of 16 clash last month, Napoli held Barcelona to a 1-1 draw in the first leg and are set to travel to Catalonia next week for the return fixture, where they will vie for a spot in the quarter-finals. Their aspirations extend to reaching the semi-finals to surpass Juventus in the battle for the final Club World Cup berth.
Today’s announcement confirms that Calzona has finalized his 22-man Napoli squad for the impending Serie A encounter with Torino, with Cyril Ngonge and Jens Cajuste omitted due to their ongoing injuries. However, Amir Rrahmani has been included in the squad following his recovery from an injury sustained during the triumph over Juventus.
Napoli endured a disheartening 3-0 defeat to Torino earlier in the season under the management of Walter Mazzarri, adding extra motivation for revenge as they host the encounter in Campania this evening.
