Torino lose Carlao to injury

Torino have lost new defender Carlao to an unusual injury, as he fell during training and dislocated his elbow.

The January signing landed awkwardly on his left elbow in a game between ranks this afternoon.

Initial tests have ruled out fractures, but Carlao will need several days of rest before more examinations on potential ligament damage.

It’s a blow for the Granata, who are already without Davide Zappacosta, Danilo Avelar, Leandro Castan and Cristian Molinaro.
