Davide Frattesi doubtful for Lecce after muscle edema
The midfielder left the Italy camp after a knock on the thigh; medical tests are due within 48 hours and could slip to Monday.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Davide Frattesi has left the Italy squad and is heading back to Rome with Lazio, top of Serie A. He took a blow to the back of the thigh in the win over France, a game in which he had scored the winner.
The Italian federation describes an edema in the upper hamstrings, a muscle problem that does not look serious, although a possible injury still has to be ruled out with scans. The tests will not come before 48 hours and could be pushed to Monday because of the weekend.
For the Lecce match on Saturday he is a doubt, since recovery time is tight. Lazio then travel to Torino and host Atalanta, and on December 13 they face Roma in the derby.
