Lazio return from the international break with a growing medical file, led by Albert Gudmundsson’s left-shoulder injury after his Iceland duty.
Key takeaways
- Gudmundsson has suffered a dislocation of his left glenohumeral joint, which reduced spontaneously.
- The Iceland international will undergo further examinations on the following day before beginning his recovery programme.
- Danilo Cataldi has also stopped with a quadriceps problem.
- Adrian Przyborek was held out of training as a precaution because of muscular fatigue.
- Fisayo Dele-Bashiru has returned to full group training.
Gudmundsson begins recovery after Iceland appearance
The international window has brought an unwelcome concern for Lazio, with Gudmundsson assessed by the club’s medical staff after returning from Iceland duty. The former Fiorentina player had left Iceland’s match against Estonia as a precaution after feeling discomfort in his shoulder.
Tests identified a dislocation in the left glenohumeral joint. The shoulder had already gone back into place without intervention, but Lazio will complete further checks before placing the versatile Icelandic player on an immediate rehabilitation plan. His condition will be reviewed day by day.
For a squad returning to the domestic rhythm, the timing matters. Gudmundsson’s situation now becomes one of the principal fitness questions awaiting the coaching staff as preparations resume after the break.
Further updates from the Lazio training ground
Cataldi has joined the unavailable group after suffering a quadriceps issue, while Przyborek has been stopped as a protective measure due to muscle fatigue.
Elsewhere, Adam Marusic and Nicolò Rovella are continuing their respective reconditioning programmes. Matteo Cancellieri is working separately from the main squad.
There was, however, a positive development with Dele-Bashiru taking part in the day’s group session, returning to collective training as Lazio seek to restore numbers ahead of the next stage of their Serie A campaign.
