Tresoldi leaves Germany U21 camp after head knock
A head clash in training sends him home as a precaution: he misses Belgium and Croatia and is hoping to be ready after the international break.
Club Brugge striker Nicolò Tresoldi has left the Germany U21 camp early after a heavy knock to the head in training. According to Tuttosport, it is a precautionary move: he will return home and will not be available for the matches against Belgium and Croatia.
The national team coach explained that the collision came from a set piece: Tresoldi jumped to head the ball, believing he had also scored, and then clashed with Hendry Blank. Both players fell to the ground with headaches. They are fine now, but they cannot play for the moment, and the hope is that they will be available again after the international break.
The 21-year-old arrives in great form, with 13 goals this season: 8 in the league and 5 in the Champions League, including a hat-trick against Inter at San Siro. Mancini has also spoken with him about the possibility of playing for Italy.
