Gennaro Borrelli and Joseph Liteta are aiming to recover for Sassuolo-Cagliari, the early match of Serie A's thirty-first matchday, on Saturday, April 4th (3:00 PM) . However, their return to the group is still postponed: both, in today's training session, only completed individualized work. With ten days to go before the match, thanks to the international break, the two injured Rossoblu players have the opportunity to fully recover.
Borrelli hasn't played since January 31st, curiously Cagliari's last win (4-0 against Verona), due to a strained right thigh flexor . Liteta was on the bench last Friday against Napoli, but wasn't fully fit due to an ankle bruise. The rest of the squad started in the gym with strength training, then moved onto the pitch for technical conditioning, followed by high-intensity practice matches on a reduced-size pitch.
Tomorrow morning training. Cagliari will be without its five international players for the entire break: in addition to Elia Caprile and Marco Palestra, who are playing in the World Cup qualifying playoffs with Italy, Semih Kılıçsoy (Turkey), Adam Obert (Slovakia), and Ibrahim Sulemana (Ghana) are also out . Except for the latter, who is playing two friendlies, the others will both play in the semifinals tomorrow.
