Cremonese has confirmed that Jamie Vardy has sustained a minor muscular strain. According to reports from Italy, the English striker might have to wait approximately another month before making his home Serie A debut for the Grigiorossi.
Vardy, a key player for Cremonese, is expected to miss Sunday`s Serie A fixture against Parma due to this muscle injury.
Cremonese`s Official Statement on Vardy`s Injury
On Thursday, Cremonese released a statement confirming that the 38-year-old underwent medical examinations for a “minor muscular strain.”
The newly-promoted Serie A club also stated that “more specific fitness tests will be conducted ahead of Sunday`s game.”
Recent updates from SOS Fanta and CremonaSera suggest that Cremonese coach Davide Nicola is likely to adopt a cautious approach and will not include Vardy in the squad for the upcoming Serie A match.
When Vardy Might Make His Home Serie A Debut for Cremonese
SOS Fanta indicates that Vardy will not start in any case, and his presence on the bench is highly uncertain.
Vardy made his Serie A debut on Monday in an away fixture against Verona, meaning the upcoming match against Parma at Stadio Zini was anticipated as his home debut for Cremonese.
If the Leicester City legend is unavailable for the Parma game, he will have to defer his home debut for another month, until October 20, when Cremonese faces Udinese. This is because after the Parma match and before the October international break, Cremonese will play away games against Como and Inter.
