Early sigh of relief after first tests on Belotti's knee

12.05:  Sigh of relief for Andrea Belotti. As reported by Sky Sport, the first tests this morning, carried out by the National Medical Staff, supervised by Torino Tavana's physician, excluded injuries to the ligaments of the right knee . Further examinations are planned to establish recovery times. 

10.15:  His club and the national team anxious for Andrea Belotti. The Turin striker, who came out of the match after 81 minutes of the 2-2 draw against Verona, worries Mihajlovic and Ventura, who will have to do without him for the matches against Macedonia and Albania. He is likely to miss time at least until November. Early assessments have shown a contusing and distorting trauma. Today's examinations will tell whether or not the involvement of the ligaments of the knee . In the most trite of the hypothesis, Belotti risks three weeks on the sideline, but, if the diagnosis is more severe, he could be forced to stay away from playing fields for three months .
