Cristiano Giuntoli has confirmed that Allan will miss Napoli’s next game against Roma but assured they expect him to return “as soon as possible”.

Allan sprained his knee during Napoli’s 2-2 draw with Atalanta and will sit out this weekend, but Giuntoli gave a positive update on the midfielder’s condition.

“All the clinical tests are negative,” the sporting director told Radio Kiss Kiss.

“He has responded well, and we hope to have him back as soon as possible.”

After the recent knee injury to Kevin Malcuit, which ruled him out for six months, could the Partenopei bring in a short-term replacement?

“Absolutely not,” replied Giuntoli.

“We have got a lot of lads here so we are covered, but we feel sorry for him as he was doing very well.”
