Samuel Chukwueze

Chukwueze will start an infiltration treatment to try to recover from his hip issue and will take more tests in 10 to 15 days, La Gazzetta dello Sport relayed.

Analysis: Chukwueze will attempt to heal through conservative therapy after getting hurt in training and will likely miss a few more weeks after the initial check-up, even if things go well. Omari Hutchinson, Diego Moreira and Christian Pulisic will handle the role going forward, as Alexis Saelemaekers (ankle) is hurt as well. The last two have been playing in other positions so far.
