However, Bertola's value will be limited without significant minutes. Prior to the injury, he racked up 78 clearances, 34 tackles, 20 interceptions and one assist over 23 league appearances (18 starts).

Impact Bertola could be back in the squad after sitting out two tilts due to an ankle sprain if he confirmed his progress in the last training session, but might not get minutes even if he is indeed available. Instead, Oumar Solet could return to the XI after dealing with an injury of his own, relegating Oier Zarraga or Kingsley Ehizibue to the bench.

He'll take the tests in the next few days.

Doesn't feature versus Milan Bertola (thigh) didn't log any minutes in Saturday's 4-0 defeat against Milan.

Impact Bertola paid the price for a tactical switch, as the coach turned to a four-man defense and fielded one fewer defender. It remains to be seen whether that will be the way to go in the next matches, given the result. He'd have to supplant Thomas Kristensen to play if that were the case.

Makes bench Saturday Bertola (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's game against AC Milan.

He has totaled two key passes, one tackle, two interceptions and 14 clearances in three matches, with no clean sheets.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to Udinese Bertola has agreed to a contract with Udinese until 2030 after leaving Spezia as a free agent.
