Alessandro Tuia - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Unused in final games Tuia didn't get minutes in the last ten matches of the season.

Impact Tuia was the top deputy behind the two starts for a large chunk of the season, but Federico Baschirotto and Samuel Umiti stayed healthy down the stretch, plus Lecce signed a few center-backs in January. He featured seven times, tallying ten tackles, 15 interceptions, 28 clearances, and one block.

Tallies eight clearances versus Empoli Tuia generated one tackle (one won), eight clearances, and two interceptions in Monday's 0-1 loss to Empoli.

Impact Tuia held his own as a fill-in starter, but it wasn't enough to come away with points. Samuel Umtiti will be back from suspension for Friday's match against Empoli. He has notched eight tackles (seven won), ten interceptions, 22 clearances and one block in the past five appearances.

Unused versus Atalanta Tuia (undisclosed) didn't play in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Atalanta.

Available versus Atalanta Tuia (undisclosed) has been called up for Wednesday's match against Atalanta.

Ruled out for Udinese game Tuia is missing from Lecce's squad list to face Udinese Friday.

Impact Tuia picked up an unspecified muscular issue and won't be an option for this one, but he hasn't played in the last seven matches, and their top options in the back are available.

Available versus Sassuolo Tuia (undisclosed) has been called up for Saturday's match against Sassuolo.

Impact Tuia is indeed good to go after re-joining his teammates in practice earlier in the week. He will compete for a starting spot with Alexis Blin and Federico Baschirotto, while Mert Cetin is out with an ankle issue. He logged 39 tackles, 36 interceptions, 85 clearances and ten blocks in 27 appearances with Benevento two seasons ago, contributing to two clean sheets.

On track for Sassuolo game Tuia (undisclosed) went into full training Monday, Lecce announced.

Impact Tuia sat out the Inter game due to a previous muscular problem. Depending on how many minutes he can handle in his first game back, he could be in contention to start with Mert Cetin (ankle), Alexis Blin and Federico Baschirotto.

Will miss Inter clash Tuia (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Saturday's game versus Inter.

Impact Tuia hasn't been able to shake off an unspecified muscular problem that already sidelined him in Coppa Italia. With Kastriot Dermaku also unavailable, two among Alexis Blin, Mert Cetin and Valentin Gendrey will play in the middle of the defense.

Ruled out for cup game Tuia will miss Friday's Coppa Itala match versus Cittadella due to an undisclosed injury, Lecce informed.

Impact Tuia is reportedly dealing with an unspecified muscular problem and is questionable for the opener against Inter. Midfielder Alexis Blin is likely to adapt to the defense and join Kastriot Dermaku in the back for the cup fixture, and that could be the case also for the Inter clash.
