SSC Napoli suffered another blow during their defeat to Arsenal by a goal to nil, as Brazilian Alisson Santos was forced to leave the pitch in the 58th minute due to a muscle injury, adding to the team's troubles at the start of the season.

Alisson Santos suffered a problem at the start of the second half, before requesting a substitution and leaving the pitch, with Vergara coming on in his place. Reports indicate that the player is experiencing a muscular issue and will undergo medical examinations to determine the nature of the injury and the exact duration of his absence.

Following the match, Massimiliano Allegri sent a concerning message regarding the condition of his player, saying: "I think we have lost Alisson for a while, I don't know the duration, we will see," indicating that the injury may keep him sidelined for several matches.
