The major Italian newspaper “La Gazzetta dello Sport” has analyzed Napoli’s humiliating 6-2 defeat by PSV on Tuesday evening, in the third round of the league phase of the Champions League. Among other things, the Italian newspaper’s analysis notes that Amir Rrahmani’s absence in defense was felt more than ever before.
“Kosovar defender Rrahmani is a giant compared with the starting defenders, especially given the mistakes made by Buongiorno and Beukema. Rrahmani, Lobotka and Hojlund form the team’s backbone. Had they been on the pitch, it would not have ended this way,” writes “La Gazzetta dello Sport”.
There is optimism at Napoli about the defender’s quick return.
Rrahmani could return to Antonio Conte’s starting lineup for the match against Inter.
Napoli–Inter will be played on Saturday.
Rrahmani was injured while on international duty with Kosovo in September.
