Santiago Castro and Benja Dominguez will return to Italy later today after their international commitments with Argentina. Toto’s situation will have to be monitored, however, because due to a physical problem he had to miss the match against Brazil, which was later won 4-1. At first there was talk of a knock on the ankle, but now it seems to be a forefoot problem, which will have to be monitored as best as possible.
Upon his return from the Albiceleste’s training camp, Castro will be examined and conduct instrumental tests to understand the extent of the problem. The hope is that it is only a severe contusion, also because the tight schedule leaves no room for Castro’s recovery. The Argentine would have missed the Venice match anyway (disqualified), but Italiano hopes to have him available against Empoli in the Coppa Italia.
