Lazio suffered another setback in pre-season training, as defender Patric has been diagnosed with a new muscular injury ahead of the friendly with Fenerbahce.
Maurizio Sarri’s men are due to face Jose Mourinho’s Turkish team in a friendly test on Wednesday evening.
However, they are weakened by fitness worries, as Gustav Isaksen is ill, Samuel Gigot has lumbago, and Patric suffered a serious muscular problem.

A statement confirmed that the centre-back was diagnosed with a mid-level lesion to the rectus femoris in his left leg.
This is quite a serious setback for him, especially coming so soon after he had surgery to correct a recurring ankle problem in March.
“It hurts, it really damn hurts,” wrote the defender on Instagram.
“I will not give up and I promise you that I will return stronger than ever. Thank you for the support. Forza Lazio.”
Lazio squad for Fenerbahce friendly:
Furlanetto, Mandas, Provedel, Renzetti; Gila, Hysaj, Lazzari, Marusic, Nuno Tavares, Pellegrini, Provstgaard, Romagnoli, Ruggeri; Basic, Belahyane, Cataldi, Dele-Bashiru, Guendouzi, Pinelli, Rovella, Vecino; Cancellieri, Castellanos, Dia, Noslin, Pedro, Sana Fernandes, Zaccagni
