Scores stunning opener Saturday Anguissa scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-3 draw versus Roma.

Impact Anguissa had not started a game since early September after injury problems, but he made his second straight start across all competitions in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Roma and marked it with a stunning goal. The midfielder opened the scoring in the 28th minute with an overhead kick after Roma failed to clear a Matteo Politano free kick, and it was his first goal of the season. The Cameroonian also put in a solid shift at the other end with two blocks, two interceptions and three clearances, while he created one chance going forward.

Unused in Venezia clash Anguissa (thigh) didn't feature in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Venezia.

Impact Anguissa was cleared to return from a thigh injury but stayed on the bench, as Napoli had to make more aggressive subs to try to come back. His return will likely affect Billy Gilmour the most and will allow the coach to give Kevin De Bruyne and Scott McTominay some breathers.

Available against Venezia Anguissa (thigh) "has ramped up in training and will be an option Saturday," coach Massimiliano Allegri announced.

Impact Anguissa will return after sustaining his second muscular problem in short order and will likely be handled carefully at first, also considering that Kevin De Bruyne and Scott McTominay are both available at the moment. He had started in the first three tilts, notching five shots (one on target), two key passes and three tackles (two won).

OCTOBER 16 • ROTOWIRE

Will not return midweek Anguissa (thigh) hasn't been selected for Tuesday's game versus Villarreal.

Impact Anguissa will continue to miss time due to a thigh strain and is considered day-to-day going forward. Kevin De Bruyne and Stanisla Lobotka teamed up in the midfield in the last game as a result of a tactical adjustment. Billy Gilmour and Scott McTominay, who's working his way back to full fitness, are the other options at the position.

OCTOBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Out for Frosinone clash Anguissa (thigh) "won't be an option Saturday but shouldn't be out for a long time," coach Massimiliano Allegri relayed.

Impact Anguissa hasn't recovered during the break and will be re-evaluated ahead of the Villarreal and Venezia games coming up next week. Billy Gilmour will continue to start in relief, while Scott McTominay (heart) is back available, albeit in limited fashion.

OCTOBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with standard strain Anguissa has been diagnosed with a low-grade right adductor longus strain, Napoli announced.

Impact Anguissa aggravated his previous injury but not too severely and will miss little time, if at all, thanks to the long break. He'll have about 20 days to recover ahead of the Frosinone game on October 10.

SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Might need to be assessed again Anguissa (thigh) recorded three passes and no further stats in a short stint off the bench in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Fiorentina and "might have gotten hurt again," coach Massimil...

Impact Anguissa returned from a two-game absence but didn't play a lot and will have to take more tests to verify whether he indeed suffered a new injury. Napoli will play their next game on October 10. Billy Gilmour and Antonio Vergara would continue to replace him if needed.

SEPTEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Selected for Fiorentina tilt Anguissa (thigh) has been named in Napoli's squad list to face Fiorentina on Sunday.

Impact Anguissa will be back after sitting out two matches and could be eased off the bench, having trained fully only on the eve of the game. Billy Gilmour and Antonio Vergara have picked up the slack in relief. He has notched five shots (one on target), two key passes and three tackles (two won) in three displays (all starts).

SEPTEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Likely for Bologna clash Anguissa (thigh) has returned to full training after missing the previous game and should at least be an option versus Bologna, Gianluca Di Marzio reported.

Impact Anguissa shook off a thigh ailment and will be neck and neck with Billy Gilmour and Antonio Vergara to start, as he could be managed since he's not 100 percent. He has recorded five shots (one on target), two chances created and three tackles (two won) in his three displays (all starts).

SEPTEMBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Arsenal clash Anguissa "won't be available Wednesday because of an adductor issue," coach Massimiliano Allegri announced.

Impact Anguissa didn't train on the eve of the match and will be re-evaluated ahead of Sunday's fixture versus Bologna. Two of Kevin De Bruyne, Antonio Vergara and Billy Gilmour will join Stanislav Lobotka in the midfield, since Scott McTominay (heart) is also missing.

Plays one half in return versus Torino Anguissa (thigh) had one tackle (one won) and one interception and drew one foul in 45 minutes in Friday's 2-1 win over Torino.

Impact Anguissa relieved Antonio Vergara (foot) at halftime and looked fine for the most part after missing months but didn't fill the stat sheet. His return to the XI could be accelerated if the teammate has to miss time and Stanislav Lobotka (quad) and Scott McTominay (thigh) remain sidelined in the midfield. He has scored four times, assisted one and recorded 26 shots (eight on target) and 18 crosses (four accurate) in 16 appearances.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Available against Torino Anguissa (back/thigh) will return Friday versus Torino, Sky Italy reported.

Impact Anguissa has recuperated from a pair of injuries and will be an option for the first time since early November. He'll likely make a few bench appearances before returning to his previous big role, but Napoli are short-handed in the midfield without Stanislav Lobotka (quad) and Scott McTominay (thigh). He has sent in at least one cross in his last five appearances, amassing seven deliveries (one accurate), scoring twice and logging six shots (two on target), five chances created and six interceptions through that stretch.

MARCH 5 • ROTOWIRE

Nursing new injury Anguissa "has been slowed down by a back issue that the doctors haven't been able to solve yet," coach Antonio Conte announced.

Impact Anguissa was in the homestretch of the rehab for a major thigh problem before suffering a new non-related physical problem that has proven trickier than expected and delayed his return, which shouldn't be too far but is up in the air at the moment because of the recent hiccup.

Picks up serious thigh problem Anguissa suffered a high-grade biceps femoris strain in his left thigh during his time with Cameroon, Napoli announced.

Impact Anguissa could be sidelined for up to two months since the injury is severe. With Kevin De Bruyne (thigh) also on the mend, Elijf Elmas will likely play consistently in the midfield, opening up room for David Neres and Noa Lang on the left wing. Fullback Leonardo Spinazzola has also occasionally played in such a role. Billy Gilmour (groin) will be the only deputy behind the starters for the foreseeable future.

Sinks Lecce Anguissa won four or four tackles and scored one goal to go with one shot (one on target) and one cross (zero accurate) in Tuesday's 1-0 win against Lecce.

Impact Anguissa decided the game with a header on a set piece, also thanks to a deflection by an opponent. He has heated up with three goals in the last five matches and is up to four in the season. He posted a new season high in tackles and has tallied at least one in the past three meetings, totaling seven (all won) and adding two shots (two on target), three crosses (one accurate) and five interceptions over that span.
