Nicolò Savona`s participation in the Club World Cup concluded prematurely during the match against Manchester City, which ended 5-2. The defender sustained a left ankle injury following a challenge with Haaland in the second half of the game held in Orlando. The pain was immediately apparent, requiring medical staff to help him off the pitch due to the significant discomfort he felt. Although his tournament is over, the player will remain with the squad in the United States. His condition is set to be re-evaluated in one month, with fears of a recovery period lasting at least a couple of months based on initial assessments.
