According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Anguissa suffered a recurrence of his injury in the final match before the international break in Florence, casting doubt on his availability for the Champions League clash. The upcoming match against Villarreal will mark a reunion with his former club.

Napoli's training on Monday followed the standard protocol: players involved in the previous match completed only recovery work, while those not selected conducted intensive running and tactical drills. Napoli will hold their final pre-match session this morning at the Castel Volturno training ground, with the squad training at 11 AM, followed by lunch and departure for Spain.

At 4:15 PM CET, Allegri and one player will hold a press conference. The main uncertainty ahead of this brief preparation period is whether Frank Anguissa will travel with the team. The midfielder has been largely sidelined since Week 3 of the league campaign following the Inter match. He made a brief comeback in Florence, appearing in the 89th minute, but suffered a re-injury to his adductor muscle. If fit to travel, this would be his first Champions League squad inclusion of the season, and it would come against Villarreal—the club where he played during the 2019-20 season. It would represent a reunion with his former side.
