News on David Neres: news regarding his return ahead of Napoli-Milan, the verdict from Castel Volturno.
Napoli has had to deal with a few too many injuries at this stage of the season. The absence of David Neres, in particular, has forced Antonio Conte to experiment with a different tactical approach, with the well-established 4-3-3 being set aside for the 3-5-2 in order to use Jack Raspadori in a position more congenial to him.
This was also compounded by the injury to Frank Anguissa, who had already returned, however, in the last match against Venezia. Neres, on the other hand, once again had to watch the match from television and will use the break to try to recover for the match against Milan.
Neres in gruppo: novità in vista di Napoli-Milan
Today’s edition of “La Gazzetta dello Sport” reports some important news in this regard: the Brazilian winger, in fact, would be training with the group and thus his return for AC Milan would be practically certain.

Still to be clarified is whether he will start from the beginning or in the match, but the fact that the player is already training with the rest of his teammates bodes well for his match fitness.
La rosea also reveals how Neres wanted to return already for the match against Venezia, an option that was discarded, however, to avoid unnecessary risks. It was thus preferred to have him at his best for Milan rather than unnecessarily forcing his return.
Napoli-Milan: perché il rientro di Neres può fare la differenza
Napoli-Milan scheduled after the break is no ordinary match: it is one of those matches that can shift the balance, both in the standings and in the fans’ souls. And having David Neres available could be Conte’s trump card. Picture the scene: the Brazilian jumping man on the flank, crossing for Lukaku or inventing a play of his own. That’s the kind of weapon that can put a consistently tough but not unbeatable Rossoneri defense in crisis.

And then there is the hunger for revenge. After missing too many games, Neres will want to prove he is still that player who drove the Eredivisie crazy with Ajax. The break has given him time to get his act together, and now he’s pawing to get back to being decisive.
Sure, he will need a few minutes to get his rhythm back, but even just his presence on the bench is a clear message that Napoli is ready to play with all its stars. And you, are you ready to see him back in action? Because at Castel Volturno, the countdown has already begun.
