Amin Sarr - Sees red in Cagliari contest Sarr had two crosses (zero accurate) and two clearances in 51 minutes in Sunday's 4-0 loss to Cagliari before being booked twice.

Impact Sarr drew the start but was ineffective and picked up a yellow card due to a rough foul at the beginning of each half. He'll be unavailable for Friday's match versus Pisa. Daniel Mosquera, Isaac or Kieron Bowie will start next to Gift Orban in the next round.

Roberto Gagliardini - Exits early versus Cagliari Gagliardini generated one cross (zero accurate) and two interceptions before leaving Saturday's match against Cagliari at the 29th minute due to a possible rib injury, Tuttomercato...

Impact Gagliardi got hit in the area a few minutes into the contest and was unable to completely shake it. He's poised to undergo exams ahead of Friday's meeting with Pisa. The coach picked newcomer Sandi Lovric over Al-Musrati and Suat Serdar to substitute for him in this one.

Daniel Mosquera - Option off bench Saturday Mosquera (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Cagliari.

Impact Mosquera finds a bench role Saturday against Cagliari after recovering from a knock that forced him to miss the previous match. The forward is available off the bench as he continues to compete with Amin Sarr to partner Gift Orban. He has come off the bench in three of his last five appearances, tallying three off-target shots and one block.

JANUARY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Nicolas Valentini - Starting in return Valentini (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Cagliari.

Impact Valentini returns to the starting lineup for Saturday's match against Cagliari after missing two matches due to a contracture. The defender is an important presence in defense, having started each of the last three matches prior to his injury and recording four tackles, four interceptions and 15 clearances during that span.

JANUARY 31 • ROTOWIRE

Kieron Bowie - Heads to Verona Bowie has agreed to a contract until 2030 upon joining Verona from Hibernian.

Impact Bowie has been acquired shortly after the departure of Giovane and will tussle for minutes with Amin Sarr, Daniel Mosquera and Isaac. He's arguably the most established of the foursome and was having a solid season in Scotland, scoring eight goals and providing three assists in 22 Premiership matches.

JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Nicolas Valentini - Returning in Cagliari contest Valentini (thigh) has been selected for Sunday's game versus Cagliari.

Impact Valentini is good to go after missing two matches because of a contracture and could get the nod over Enzo Ebosse or Tomas Slotsager if fit enough to start. He has posted three or more clearances in his last three showings, racking up 15 and adding four tackles (three won) and four interceptions over that span, with no clean sheets.

JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Daniel Mosquera - Good to go for Cagliari tilt Mosquera (undisclosed) has been called up for Saturday's game versus Cagliari.

Impact Mosquera won't need to miss more matches after skipping the previous one because of a knock and will resume competing with Amin Sarr to partner with Gift Orban following the departure of Giovane. He has come off the bench in three of his last five displays, notching three off-target shots and one block.

JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Sandi Lovric - Heads to Verona Lovric has joined Verona on a six-month loan from Udinese.

Impact Lovric has featured just six times (one start) so far this season after being a fixture for three consecutive campaigns, as he has been overtaken by Arthur Atta, Jakub Piotrowski, Jurgen Ekkelenkamp and other midfielders. He'll compete with Adrien Bernede, Suat Serdar and Cheikh Niasse at his new club. He has assisted once and posted six chances created, 63 crosses and 10 crosses so far.

JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE

Amin Sarr - Records first goal contribution Sarr assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 3-1 loss to Udinese.

Impact Sarr made his third consecutive start for the first time this season and delivered his first goal contribution with an assist. Across those games, he took five shots and created two chances while contributing defensively with two clearances, one interception and three tackles, registering one tackle in each match.

JANUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Gift Orban - Scores team's lone goal Orban scored one goal to go with four shots (three on goal) in Monday's 3-1 defeat versus Udinese.

Impact Orban remains the standout player in a struggling team that currently sitting in the relegation zone, contributing seven goals and one assist to the side's 18 total goals. He has started all of the last five matches, scoring three goals from 14 shots and creating four chances, with only one game without an attempt.

JANUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Simone Perilli - Four saves in loss Perilli had four saves and allowed three goals in Monday's 3-1 loss to Udinese.

Impact Perilli followed up his league debut clean sheet by conceding three goals in this match, though he could not be faulted for any of them. He made several strong saves, denying Udinese on four occasions, including three shots from inside the box. His next appearance is scheduled to come against Cagliari on Saturday.

Davis scores as Udinese wins 3-1 at struggling Verona in Serie A

Keinan Davis has scored his seventh goal of the season as Udinese beat Verona 3-1

JANUARY 26 • Associated Press

Daniel Mosquera - Will skip Udinese meeting Mosquera won't be involved Monday because of a muscular injury, Verona announced.

Impact Mosquera will take the tests in the coming days to evaluate the seriousness of the injury and determine his timetable. Amin Sarr, Gift Orban and Isaac will split minutes up front since Giovane recently left the club.

JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Nicolas Valentini - Ruled out for Udinese fixture Valentini (undisclosed) hasn't been selected for Monday's clash with Udinese.

Impact Valentini will skip the second contest in a row because of a muscular injury. Enzo Ebosse and Tobias Slotsager will likely get the nod again since Armel Bella-Kotchap (thigh) and Unai Nunez (not-injury-related) are also unavailable.

JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Rafik Belghali - Will miss more time Belghali (ankle) hurt his ligaments and will be sidelined for at least two more weeks, TeleNuovo reported.

Impact Belghali sprained his ankle after coming back from AFCON and will be unavailable for a while longer. Pol Lirola got the call right after joining and should remain at the top of the depth chart over Fallou Cham and Daniel Oyegoke on the right flank.

JANUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Jean Akpa - Recovering from significant injury Akpa Akpro has been nursing a tibial microfracture and will miss at least another month, TeleNuovo reported.

Impact Akpa Akpro has been absent since late November and will need more time to shake off a serious physical problem. He was a rotational piece in the midfield before getting hurt. Suat Serdar and Cheikh Niasse have absorbed his minutes for the most part.

JANUARY 21 • ROTOWIRE

Simone Perilli - Keeps clean sheet in season debut Perilli made one save and kept a clean sheet during Monday's scoreless draw against Cremonese.

Impact Perilli made his season debut with usual starter Lorenzo Montipo getting benched and delivered the clean sheet with a calm, composed outing, showing he can manage low-event matches without drama. For fantasy, he remains a volatile option tied entirely to selection whims, but performances like this at least confirm he is a capable plug-in when called upon.

JANUARY 20 • ROTOWIRE

Tobias Slotsager - Busy in first Serie A start Slotsager had one off-target shot, made nine clearances and one interception and helped his side to keep a clean sheet during Monday's scoreless draw against Cremonese.

Impact Slotsager handled his first Serie A start with real maturity, staying busy throughout and showing the poise you want from a young center-back thrust into a physical match. His heavy defensive involvement fits a profile that can offer a workable peripheral floor when Verona are absorbing pressure. With two straight appearances and clear trust from the staff, he is creeping onto the fantasy radar, though still more of a deep-league watchlist play until his role stabilizes.

JANUARY 20 • ROTOWIRE

Victor Nelsson - Logs 10 clearances in draw Nelsson had one off-target shot, made 10 clearances, four interceptions and one block and helped his side to keep a clean sheet during Monday's scoreless draw against Cremonese.

Impact Nelsson had another great performance to his account, dominating opposing forwards as usual and adding to his gaudy season stats as he keeps leading all Serie A players in both clearances and interceptions while also being among the top 10 in blocks so he's a must-have fantasy asset right now.

JANUARY 20 • ROTOWIRE

Unai Nunez - Will return against Udinese Nunez cleared a one-game ban in Monday's 0-0 draw against Cremonese.

Impact Nunez will be eligible to face Udinese on Monday and will replace either Tobias Slotsager or Enzo Ebosse, who filled in while he, Armel Bella-Kotchap (thigh) and Nahuel Valentini (undisclosed) were sidelined. Nunez has notched one or more clearances in eight consecutive outings, amassing 32 and adding 11 tackles (nine won), 12 interceptions and eight blocks, with no clean sheets.
