Gian Piero Gasperini has announced his squad for the Coppa Italia round of 16 match against Torino.
In a time of great need, with the absences of Mancini (suspended), Dovbyk, Ferguson, and Pellegrini (injured), the Giallorossi coach has received two reinforcements.
The most significant news is the return of Evan N’Dicka.
Despite the disappointment of Ivory Coast’s elimination in the Africa Cup of Nations quarterfinals last Saturday against Egypt, the Ivorian center-back is back in the squad.
This is a crucial return to provide breathing space for the defense.
Up front, Leon Bailey is the new addition.
After yet another muscle injury that put his presence in doubt, the Jamaican has returned to the squad and is included in the squad, offering an additional option for a depleted attack, although his physical reliability remains the main unknown factor in this first half of the season.
