Como, Italy — Torino FC face serious setback ahead of their match against Como 1907 on April 13, 2025. Star player Nikola Vlasic, who was initially part of the squad, had to pull out just before kickoff due to a muscle strain.
Coach Paolo Vanoli announced the news shortly before the game began, leaving fans concerned. Vlasic had been present with the team and was expected to play, but his sudden injury means he will not be participating in the match.
“It’s unfortunate to lose Nikola at such a critical moment,” said Vanoli during a pre-match briefing. “We hope it’s not too serious, but we will evaluate his condition in the upcoming days.”
Vlasic’s absence is compounded by the injuries to other key players including Lazaro and Ricci, both of whom were also ruled out for today’s match. This leaves Torino with a thinner lineup as they look to secure a much-needed win.
The team was already feeling the pressure as they headed into the match, given their competitive position in the Serie A standings. Each player’s availability is crucial in the tight race, and such injuries could significantly impact the season’s outcomes.
As fans await further updates on Vlasic, the team continues to prepare for a challenging match against Como. The injury list is a major concern, and the staff will need to find effective strategy adjustments moving forward.
