Napoli faced another injury blow as Noa Lang came off against Lecce, while Rasmus Hojlund returned from injury to boost the team.

Napoli’s injury struggles continue, with Noa Lang suffering a setback in their 1-0 win over Lecce. The Dutchman came off just after the start of the second half, having attempted to play on despite a bruise above his left knee.

Lang’s injury is the latest in a long line of setbacks for Napoli, who have been plagued by injuries to key players, including Kevin De Bruyne, who is sidelined for up to four months with a hamstring injury.

Despite the setback, there was some positive news for Napoli, with Danish forward Rasmus Hojlund making his return from injury. Hojlund, on loan from Manchester United, was brought on for Lorenzo Lucca just after the hour mark.

Hojlund’s return is a boost for Napoli, who have struggled with injuries to several key players. The forward had been on a run of six goals in four games before his injury, and his experience could be crucial in the team’s upcoming fixtures.

The team’s next fixture is against Como, and Conte will hope to have a fuller squad available for the match.
