Injury problems continue to pile up for Napoli, as Andre Frank Zambo Anguissa was diagnosed with a strain of the soleus muscle in his right leg.
The Partenopei have had a troubled pre-season preparation period with a series of physical issues flaring up.
Anguissa is the latest, but at least the tests showed it is a strain of the soleus muscle rather than a lesion or tear.
A formal statement still warns his condition will be evaluated over the next few weeks, so he will miss the start of the season.
Victor Osimhen is also out with a muscular issue, while Kvicha Kvaratskhelia suffered a knock to the knee.
Giovanni Simeone and Mario Rui have been diagnosed with muscular problems recently too and Gianluca Gaetano fractured the metatarsal in his foot.
