Riccardo Calafiori
Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori (23) has left the Italy camp and returned to London after suffering a knee injury, according to Italy head coach Gennaro Gattuso.
Gattuso explained that although Calafiori tried to be available, he “can’t force it now,” and the decision was made to let him be assessed by Arsenal’s medical staff.
Arsenal’s medical team, per reports, are not anticipating anything serious.
Mikel Arteta is still unsure on the prognosis of the issues that caused William Saliba, Declan Rice and Riccardo Calafiori to be substituted in Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Crystal Palace.
