Conte is reputable for his punishing training techniques, particularly in pre-season training, which has seen some of his former players break down, including Leonardo Bonucci at Juventus and Son Heung-min at Tottenham Hotspur.

According to Transfermarkt, the Super Eagles star suffered six different injuries and missed 92 days of action and 15 games for the defending champions last season.

The former Lille star hopes the problem is not too serious and that he can still secure a move away from Estadio Diego Armando Maradona this summer.

Injuries have denied players dream moves. According to Goal, Serhou Guirassy's impending move from Stuttgart to Borussia Dortmund is in doubt after an injury was discovered during his medicals.
