Set for knee surgery
Buongiorno will go under the knife to repair a partially torn meniscus in his right knee, Napoli announced.
Analysis: Buongiorno tried to push through the injury during the pre-season retreat, but the discomfort wasn't subsiding. He could be sidelined for up to three months after the operation, La Gazzetta dello Sport relayed. Amir Rrahmani, Sam Beukema, Rafa Marin and Luca Marianucci will be the top options at the position while he's on the mend.
Late scratch for Udinese match
Buongiorno is unavailable for Sunday's game versus Udinese due to a knee contusion, Sky Italy reported.
Analysis: Buongiorno picked up a knock late in the week and won't be involved, closing a workmanlike campaign with 10 clean sheets in 40 matches, posting 45 tackles, 49 interceptions and 128 clearances. Mathias Olivera has been picked over Sam Beukema and Juan Jesus to replace him in the season finale.
