On Friday, in training, Dennis Praet cracked the fifth metatarsal (one of the five bones that connect the back of the foot to the toes). “Additional examinations will be carried out over the next few days”, said Torino, the club where he has been on loan from Leicester since this summer. The exact duration of the Devil’s unavailability is therefore not yet known. According to British media, one option could be to return to England for treatment.
Praet logically had to skip the match against Venice, scheduled for this Saturday evening. This season, the former Mauve has played 18 games with the Turinese (for two goals). He was just getting stronger in the midfield, having started 11 of the last 13 games. Torino has a purchase option valued at €15 million to bring him permanently into the Boot.
