Cheick Oumar Conde - Diagnosed with fracture Conde will undergo surgery due to a right fibula fracture, Venezia announced.
Impact Conde will work to be ready for next year's opener, closing his first turn in Serie A with six tackles, four interceptions, three clearances and two blocks in nine appearances (one start) since transferring from Zurich in January. Issa Doumbia will deputize Kike Perez and Gianluca Busio in the last two fixtures.

Kike Perez - Energetic in Fiorentina clash Perez (head) had two crosses (one accurate), two tackles (both won), one chance created and two interceptions in Monday's 2-1 victory over Fiorentina.
Impact Perez didn't miss time because of a head injury and had his usual gritty display, contributing on both ends. He'll likely continue to have a large role in the last two games. He has launched multiple crosses in four of his last five appearances, totaling 12 (five accurate), scoring once and adding three chances created, seven corners and three interceptions. He has tallied multiple tackles in the last three rounds, racking up eight (six won).

Michael Folorunsho - Disqualified for Bologna bout Folorunsho had three shots (one on target) and one cross (zero accurate), drew one foul and received his fifth yellow card in 27 minutes in Monday's 2-1 defeat against Venezia.
Impact Folorunsho brought some juice off the bench but was a little wasteful in the box. He won't be available for the next tilt due to yellow-card accumulation. He has started just once in the last seven matches. Amir Richardson, Cher Ndour and Yacine Adli will absorb his minutes.

Lucas Beltran - Suspended for Bologna game Beltran had two key passes, one shot (zero on target) and one interception and picked up his fifth yellow card in Monday's 2-1 loss to Venezia.
Impact Beltran was the lone forward on the pitch for Fiorentina since Moise Kean and Albert Gudmundsson were sidelined by thigh problems but didn't exploit the situation and wasn't more productive than usual. He'll sit out Sunday's clash with Bologna due to yellow-card accumulation. The coach would have to use a youngster or adapt a player to the position if neither of the two regulars returned.
