Lazio dealt a blow as Gudmundsson ruled out for a month

SS Lazio and coach Gennaro Gattuso have suffered a major blow with the confirmation that Icelandic forward Albert Gudmundsson will be sidelined for up to a month due to an injury sustained while playing for his national team.

Gudmundsson suffered a shoulder injury during the match between Iceland and Estonia in the UEFA Nations League, before returning to AS Roma for further examinations.

Medical tests have revealed a shoulder dislocation, with reports later indicating a more complex injury that could keep him out for at least a month, with the possibility of an extended absence depending on the progression of his condition.

Gudmundsson's absence is a blow to Gattuso's plans, particularly as the player is regarded as an important attacking element in SS Lazio's lineup, while the medical staff continues to monitor his condition and determine a return date for participation.

The player is expected to undergo a rehabilitation program with daily monitoring, hoping for a return as soon as possible without the need for surgical intervention according to current data.
