On Monday, Quotidiano Sportivo reported Bologna’s Santiago Castro wants to feature against Liverpool at all costs.
At the weekend, the striker was taken off in his side’s 1-1 draw against Atalanta due to a calf problem.
Il Resto del Carlino bring the latest on the 20-year-old’s possible involvement against Liverpool on Wednesday.
Both Castro and Bologna manager Vincenzo Italiano are hoping for him to be fit for the Champions League tie at Anfield. The initial check-up has shown no concerns of a serious setback, but it isn’t clear yet whether he’ll be available to face the Reds.
Italiano knows the South American is determined to play against Arne Slot’s side. If he’s not having issues with his calf after Tuesday’s session, the manager is most likely to give Castro minutes tomorrow.
In other words, today is ‘decisive test’ for Castro to find out if he can be involved against Liverpool.
Castro has three goals and an assist in the last three league games. He’s a key player for Bologna and his absence would be a blow for the Serie A side.
