Lazio’s goalkeeper Ivan Provedel is set to undergo a lengthy spell on the sidelines following an injury sustained during the team’s 2-1 defeat to Udinese in Serie A on Monday. Provedel, who had to be substituted by Christos Mandas during injury time at the Stadio Olimpico, is reported to have suffered an ankle sprain, potentially ruling him out for approximately three weeks, as indicated by various sources, including La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Seen leaving the Stadio Olimpico wearing a protective boot, Provedel is anticipated to have undergone additional examinations at the Paideia clinic in Rome on Tuesday morning. Further updates regarding his condition are expected from Lazio in the near future.

The loss to Udinese marked Lazio’s 12th defeat in Serie A this season, leaving them trailing by 11 points outside the top four with only 10 matches remaining in the 2023-24 campaign. In a bid to rejuvenate the team, President Claudio Lotito and sporting director Angelo Fabiani have advocated for a mid-season training camp at Formello.
