Not dealing with severe problem Destro missed the past game with a thigh contracture and the ensuing tests came back negative, Genoa announced.
Impact Destro was a late scratch versus Salernitana, but the injury is not serious and he has good chances to be back for the Sassuolo game right after the break. Flavio Bianchi replaced him in the past match. Genoa should have also Felipe Caicedo at their disposal when the League resumes.

Late scratch against Salernitana Destro was a late scratch for Saturday's match against Salernitana because of a muscular injury.
Impact Destro is coming off a brace, so this late scratch is disappointing ahead of the international break. The hope is that it's not a major issue and he'll recover in the next two weeks. In his place Saturday, Flavio Bianchi is in the XI against Salernitana.

Reinstated by Genoa Destro ended up staying and will be one of the top options up front, Genoa president Enrico Preziosi announced.
Impact Destro was excluded for the first two matches because he was in advanced talks to join Spezia, but the move did not materialize.

He will split time with Felipe Caicedo, Goran Pandev and a few youngsters this season.
