Dovbyk returns to group training
After missing the first test of the season against Trastevere due to a minor muscle strain, the Ukrainian striker will return to the squad tomorrow, ready to resume training with Gasperini's team, reports Corriere dello Sport.
Having arrived last year for €30.5 million, Dovbyk finished the season with 17 goals overall, but failed to shine in the most important matches.
Now, with the arrival of a direct competitor like Evan Ferguson, the challenges are increasing. And the former Girona player is called upon to provide answers. With Gasperini, all the conditions for a leap in quality are in place. Now it's up to him.
