Bologna have been dealt an early October setback after Jens Odgaard was ruled out for around four weeks with a right-thigh injury, removing an option from Raffaele Palladino’s plans for a demanding stretch of the Serie A season.
Odgaard injury confirmed by Bologna
The Danish player underwent tests after feeling discomfort on the previous day. The examinations identified an injury to the flexor muscles in his right thigh, with Bologna placing his expected recovery period at four weeks.
- Player: Jens Odgaard
- Injury: right-thigh flexor muscle problem
- Expected absence: approximately four weeks
- Coach affected: Raffaele Palladino
October fixtures without the Dane
Palladino will have to prepare without Odgaard for Bologna’s next two listed league appointments: Lecce on 11 October and Inter on 17 October. The matches arrive at a point of the campaign when squad availability can quickly shape both selection and momentum.
Bologna’s hope is that Odgaard can return in time for the eighth round, when they travel to Cagliari’s Unipol Domus.
- 11 October: Bologna v Lecce
- 17 October: Bologna v Inter
- Possible return target: away to Cagliari in Matchday 8
