Samp return to training in two groups for recovery and fitness work

Marco Giampaolo’s Sampdoria squad were straight back in Bogliasco on Thursday morning for a group session following last night’s 1-1 draw with Roma.

The players involved for all or most of the match against the Giallorossi focused on individual recovery, while the rest of the players worked through a range of fitness drills and technique exercises outside. Primavera youngsters Giacomo Piccardo and Michal Tomic joined in with first-team training.

Dennis Praet received treatment and physiotherapy and will undergo tests in the coming days.

Samp will train again on Friday afternoon.
