"The good news is that Matteo Gabbia has not done any serious damage to his knee, but his presence at the Supercoppa Italiana is in doubt. According to what the club circulated after the scans this morning, Gabbia suffered a hypertensive injury to his left knee during the draw with Sassuolo. Clinical and instrumental tests performed today ruled out capsular ligament and meniscal injuries, which is certainly a positive."
"La Gazzetta dello Sport add some more specifics on the injury: the Italian defender's knee made an unnatural movement when his foot, instead of continuing to run, planted itself in the ground while about to make a challenge. Reviewing the footage, it seemed like it could be a more severe injury, but the diagnosis was favourable for the player and Allegri."
Matteo Gabbia suffered a hypertensive injury to his left knee during the draw with Sassuolo; scans and clinical tests excluded capsular ligament and meniscal injuries. The diagnosis indicates that no extended absence is expected, but Gabbia will certainly miss the Supercoppa semi-final against Napoli in Riyadh. Availability for a potential final on January 22 remains uncertain and will depend on his recovery. The knee made an unnatural movement when his foot planted instead of continuing to run during a challenge, prompting initial concern. Gabbia will travel with the team to Riyadh and Koni De Winter will replace him against Napoli.
