Napoli faces ongoing injury crisis under Max Allegri

Napoli is facing a severe injury crisis that continues to plague the club despite changes in coaching staff and medical personnel. Under current manager Max Allegri, the team has seen a significant number of players sidelined, many due to muscle injuries sustained during international breaks.

Key absences include Mathias Olivera, Antonio Vergara, and Costantino Favasuli, all of whom are expected to be out for one to two months. The defensive line and midfield have been particularly hard hit, with players like Alessandro Buongiorno, Luca Marianucci, and André-Frank Anguissa also missing significant time. Additionally, Scott McTominay is sidelined for four matches following a minor cardiac procedure, and goalkeeper Alex Meret has missed recent matches.

This ongoing trend of physical setbacks follows similar issues experienced during the previous tenure of Antonio Conte, raising questions about the club's ability to manage player workloads during dense fixture periods.
