Calciomercato.com, the best Italian site focuses on football, transfer market news and rumors, confirmed that the Azzurri team received a big blow with the absence of two of its best pillars in the defensive line, Giorgio Chiellini and Leonardo Bonucci from the Italy match against Switzerland in the European qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup Qatar. Roberto Mancini may be forced to cope without Giorgio Chiellini and Leonardo Bonucci against Switzerland as the Juventus defenders missed the game against Fiorentina due to injuries.
The absence of Chiellini and Bonucci will be a painful blow to the coach of Italy, Roberto Mancini, given the importance of the veteran players who contributed greatly to Italy's victory in the Euro 2020 championship last summer and their major role played, especially in the final match of the European tournament against England at Wembley Stadium.Giorgio Chiellini had previously suffered a significant injury to the right adductor muscle, in addition to Leonardo Bonucci's muscle fatigue. He explained that Bonucci and Chiellini will join the Italian national team camp today, Monday, before they undergo new medical and radiological examinations once they reach the football pool in the World Cup qualifiers. According to Calciomercato.com, both players will join the national team tomorrow and undergo medical examinations upon their arrival at Coverciano.
Italy are already without Marco Verratti, who sustained a hip injury with PSG and will return to action after the break. Italy and Switzerland are on even points on top of Group C, but the Azzurri have a better goal difference.
