Chievo duo Christian Puggioni and Roberto Guana were involved in a training ground bust-up on Sunday that left the Flying Donkeys goalkeeper with a broken nose.

The fight happened during the club’s pre-season retreat in San Zeno di Montagna and was initially reported as a regular collision during training.

However news has leaked that Guana threw a punch, leaving Puggioni the worst for wear as his nose was broken. He has already had surgery to correct the problem and is expected to fully recover in three weeks.

For his indiscretion Guana was sent home for three days by the Flying Donkeys and has been put up for sale by the club as they look to move on from the ugly incident and prepare for the upcoming Serie A season.
