Pepe Reina remains a major doubt to feature for Napoli in Sunday’s Serie A game with Verona, so Gabriel could start again.

The goalkeeper was sorely missed in their 3-1 defeat to Udinese last week.

Today Reina again trained separately from the rest of the season due to a muscular problem in his right leg and time is running out.

If the Spaniard is again unable to take the gloves this weekend, Gabriel will be given only his second Serie A appearance of the season.

Gabriel, on loan from Milan, saved a penalty against Udinese, but his howler gifted them a goal.

Napoli will certainly be without suspended Gonzalo Higuain, Dries Mertens and Kalidou Koulibaly on Sunday.
