Fitness tests, technique drills and tactics for Samp, morning session on Sunday

Claudio Ranieri and his staff welcomed back Argentine players Gonzalo Maroni and Emiliano Rigoni on Saturday as the Blucerchiati continued their training activities during the winter break with a double session in Bogliasco.

The players underwent fitness tests in the morning session, while after lunch the group worked through a series of technique drills and tactical exercises on Pitch 1 of the Mugnaini. Bartosz Bereszynski, Andrea Bertolacci, Federico Bonazzoli, Fabio Depaoli, Albin Ekdal and Nicola Murru had individual sessions in the gym and outside on the pitches in the afternoon session.

Edgar Barreto continued to work on his recovery plan, while Alex Ferrari did not take part in either session following the right knee injury he sustained yesterday. The defender’s injury will be further assessed early in the new year.

Samp have a morning training session scheduled for Sunday morning.
