Juan Jesus
NAPStays on the bench versus Bologna
Jesus (personal) didn't play in Monday's 3-2 loss to Bologna.
Analysis: Jesus was back in the fold after tending to a personal matter, but Napoli are in full force in the back with Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Ami Rrahmani and Mathias Olivera all healthy. He'll stay in a backup role in the last two matches. He has registered seven takcles (four won), seven interceptions and 15 clearances in his last six outings, with no clean sheets.
Available against Bologna
Jesus (personal) will be an option for Monday's game versus Bologna, Il Mattino reported.
Analysis: Jesus has handled the personal issues that forced him to step away from the team for a couple of days before the previous match. On the other hand, Napoli have recovered some pieces in recent weeks, primarily Amir Rrahmani and Giovanni Di Lorenzo, so he'll struggle to have a regular role down the stretch. He has notched seven tackles (three won), seven interceptions and 15 clearances in his last six displays (five starts), with no clean sheets. He was an unused sub in two straight matches before his absence.
Out for Como contest
Jesus isn't an option for Saturday's clash with Como for personal reasons, Napoli announced.
Analysis: Jesus stayed in Naples to tend to a private matter that forced him to miss practice Thursday, even though he was spotted at the training center on the eve of the game. Napoli are understaffed in the back without him and Mathias Olivera (thigh), although Giovanni Di Lorenzo is back from a lengthy absence.
