The instrumental tests that Duván Zapata, Torino striker, underwent after the injury on Saturday night against Inter gave the worst outcome of those expected: injury to the anterior cruciate ligament, the medial meniscus and the lateral meniscus . A very serious injury, which will keep the Colombian striker out for practically the entire season (at most he could return in the very last days, but in any case after seven months of stoppage).

Paolo Vanoli, starting from Cagliari-Torino after the break for the national teams (Sunday 20th at 18:00 at the Domus), will have to reinvent the attack since he will be missing his main offensive referent. And midfielder Ivan Ilic is also in doubt : called up by Serbia for the Nations League commitments, this afternoon he immediately left the retreat due to an inflammation of the Achilles tendon. An injury, certified by the doctors of the Serbian national team, which will now be managed by the Torino staff.

Against the rossoblù at the Domus, the granata will certainly also be without defender Guillermo Maripán , who was sent off in the 20th minute of the match the day before yesterday against Inter and is suspended.
