Available for Napoli game Ilic (calf) has made Torino's squad list to face Napoli on Saturday.

He hasn't recorded meaningful stats in his last three cameos.

Unavailable against Udinese Ilic (foot) hasn't been selected for Wednesday's match versus Udinese.

Yann Karamoh, Karol Linetty and Antonio Sanabria could benefit from the situation depending on which formation the gaffer decides to deploy.

He'll compete with Cesare Casadei, Adrien Tameze (thigh), Karol Linetty and Gvidas Gineitis for a spot next to Samuele Ricci in the midfield. He has tallied one chance created, four crosses, seven crosses (zero accurate) and three clearances in his last five outings (two starts).
