Mattiello suffers new fracture

By Football Italia staff

Terrible news for Chievo, as Federico Mattiello sustained another fracture to the same leg that was already broken in March.

The Juventus-owned defender suffered the horrific double break during an accidental collision with Roma’s Radja Nainggolan.

He had only just returned and played a full 90 minutes at the weekend.

However, during today’s training session, Mattiello sprained his right ankle and tests showed a new fracture.

It’s not clear how long he will be out for, but it’s a devastating blow for the young defender.
