Ruled out for Milan clash Kayode (ankle) hasn't been selected for Saturday's game versus Milan.

Impact Kayode has started ramping up in training but will be given a few more days to work on his conditioning after a month on the shelf. Fabiano Parisi will most likely play as right-back again.

Expected back for Milan fixture Kayode (ankle) reprised training with no limitations Wednesday, Corriere dello Sport relayed.

Impact Kayode has shaken off an ankle sprain that sidelined him for three matches and will work on his conditioning in the lead-up to the game. He could start over Fabiano Parisi, who adapted to the role, if in good enough shape. He has logged four chances created, 15 crosses (four accurate), and 15 tackles in his last five appearances.

Will miss some time Kayode has been diagnosed with a medium-grade ankle sprain with no bone or ligament damage, Fiorentina announced.

Impact Kayode will have to sit multiple matches but avoided the worst-case scenarios. He might return after the next international break. Niccolo Pierozzi, Pietro Comuzzo, and Fabiano Parisi will be options at right-back while he's out.

Suffers ankle sprain Kayode "sustained a left-ankle sprain that didn't look good. He was suffering. We hope he could recover quickly because we already have big problems at his position," coach Vincenz...

Impact Kayode had to sub off after just ten minutes as he got his leg trapped underneath his body on a tackle. He's headed for some tests. Pietro Comuzzo adapted to the role in relief, while Niccolo Pierozzi manned it later on. Neither of the two youngsters has played much so far. They could also field Fabiano Parisi and Cristiano Biraghi (lower leg) together if the latter recovered.

Forced off early Kayode was forced off with an apparent injury just 10 minutes into Thursday's clash with Cukaricki.

Impact Kayode lasted 10 minutes before going down holding his leg and asking to be subbed off. The nature of the injury isn't clear but it was evident immediately that the defender couldn't carry on. Kayode signed a new long-term extension Wednesday, and still figured to be part of the plans moving forward when fit. In the meantime Pietro Comuzzo could see more opportunities depending on the severity of Kayode's injury.

Agrees to multi-year extension Kayode has renewed his contract with Fiorentina until 2028, the club relayed.

Impact Kayode has taken over the starting job since Dodo suffered an ACL tear and has been brilliant considering he debuted in the pros this season. He has recorded 17 crosses (four accurate), 16 tackles, and four chances created in six appearances. He'll enjoy a nice pay bump as well.
