Lazio’s injury woes continue to worsen after Matteo Cancellieri was forced off in the first half of the Biancocelesti’s trip to Atalanta.

The 23-year-old forward, who has been one of Maurizio Sarri’s best players in recent matches, appeared to suffer some injury to his left thigh.

In a report from Pazzidifanta.com, they suggest a flexor problem that could compound the club’s long list of injuries so far this season.

Cancellieri was replaced by Danish forward Gustav Isaksen against La Dea.

Cancellieri injury a scare for Lazio

So far this season, the 23-year-old has scored 3 goals in 5 Serie A matches, in a combined total of just 390 minutes.

After spending last season at Parma, the winger impressed in pre-season for Maurizio Sarri and used his performances as a platform to break into the Biancocelesti first team.

It came at a promising time for Sarri’s side, who faced a transfer embargo in the summer that prevented them from making any new signings.
