Genoa, captain Criscito lightly ran today following muscle injury
- Apollo Heyes
The 32-year-old Italian left back was forced off the pitch against Milan due to a muscle injury with some reports estimating his recovery time to be upwards of two months. However, with the player lightly running, he may make a quicker return than previously estimated.
However, the Rossoblu have no intention of rushing his recovery and causing further injury. A note circulated around the club detailed how they will monitor and verify his condition daily in order to help his rehabilitation and ensure that he isn’t working too hard, which could cause the injury to escalate.
Criscito had started in every game for the Ligurian club so far this season, scoring three goals across all competitions for his side, despite his role as a centre back. He was forced off after 11 minutes against the Rossoneri in their 2-1 defeat to the Milanese club.
