Napoli confirm surgery for Gilmour ahead of crunch Roma clash - Soccer News
""Billy Gilmour will undergo surgery in London on Monday, accompanied by Gennaro De Luca from the club's medical staff," a statement on Napoli's website read."
""Napoli was not dead, so it's not about being alive," he said. "It's about working and always giving everything we've got. "We can win games or not, but the lads know they must give everything each time.""
""We're eagerly anticipating the game against Napoli, it's fair enough that we think about that," he said. "However, to prepare well, you also have to play well. "The teams know each other well. Napoli's strength is their squad. They have a great team, they're champions of Italy. We know that we have to play to the best of our ability. We'll play against one of the strongest teams in Italy. "Unlike we did against Inter and AC Milan [both 1-0 defeats], we have to get a better result. We measure ourselves against the strongest teams. Let's see where we are.""
Billy Gilmour will undergo surgery in London on Monday, accompanied by Napoli medical staff representative Gennaro De Luca. The Scotland international has been absent for the past month and missed World Cup qualifiers against Greece and Denmark. Gilmour's setback further weakens Napoli's midfield, where Kevin De Bruyne and Frank Anguissa are already long-term absentees. Napoli can move above Roma with victory at the Stadio Olimpico. The team beat Qarabag 2-0 in the Champions League midweek, and Antonio Conte praised the players' work ethic and effort. Roma coach Gian Piero Gasperini expects a strong challenge and wants a better result against top opponents.
