Neres has been diagnosed with a right ankle sprain with no ulterior damage, Napoli announced.

Neres will sit out the midweek round against Verona but has a chance to recover for the crunch match against Inter later in the week, La Gazzetta dello Sport informed. Noa Lang, Miguel Gutierrez or Alessandro Buongiorno will replace him in the next game, as the coach can move a few pieces across the formation.
