We expected this one, but the hits still keep coming for Napoli's attack.
Over a week after sustaining a bad concussion playing for Belgium, Dries Mertens has finally returned to the training pitch.
Napoli injury woes are going from bad to worse, as another attacker may need to go under the knife.
Mertens has finally returned to Naples after the attacker's concussion last weekend.
Mertens is still shaken by the concussion he suffered over the weekend, leaving him unlikely at best to play against Cagliari this weekend, and probably longer.
Frightening details are emerging about Dries Mertens' injury that he suffered on Sunday while playing for Belgium.
While doctors in Belgium are optimistic about Dries Mertens' recovery timetable, Napoli wants to wait until he's home and make sure before getting their hopes up.
Well, considering that he barely looks like he knows where he is, it's probably a teammate or coach doing the tweeting, but it's still good to see Mertens awake and (kind of) moving after the hit he took.
Dries Mertens has been initially diagnosed with a concussion after being knocked out in a violent collision while playing for Belgium today.
Napoli's medical chief thinks that Lorenzo Insigne has a shot at returning by the end of the season thanks to a shorter recovery timeline than initially expected.
