Unused in Verona match Gollini (hand) didn't play in Saturday's 3-1 win over Verona.

Will be back against Verona Gollini (hand) has logged multiple full practices in a row and will resume deputizing Alex Meret in the Verona game, SportMediaset relayed.

Impact Gollini has recuperated from a hand injury that sidelined him for an extensive period of time. He'll have better chances of getting some spot starts when the coach decides to give the top option a breather compared to the other backups in recent weeks.

OCTOBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not returning versus Fiorentina Gollini (hand) won't be called up against Fiorentina Saturday but will re-join the group during the break, coach Rudi Garcia announced.

Impact Gollini has missed more than a month with a hand contusion but is expected to return to full health during the upcoming pause. Alex Meret has played every game so far, partly because he's been sidelined and the third-stringer Nikita Contini isn't as established.

OCTOBER 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Still sidelined Gollini (hand) hasn't been called up for Saturday's away game versus Lecce, Napoli announced.

Impact Gollini suffered a hand contusion at the beginning of the month and hasn't been able to recuperate from it yet. Nikita Continue has been backing up Alex Meret, but he hasn't been needed so far.

SEPTEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Limited to individual work Gollini (hand) was limited to individual training Thursday in the lead-up to Saturday's matchup with Lecce.

Impact Gollini is running out of time to rejoin first-team training if he wants to return to action for Saturday's matchup. Even once given the all-clear, Gollini is unlikely to supplant Alex Meret as the preferred choice between the sticks.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Wednesday Gollini (hand) was left out of the traveling squad to face SC Brage on Wednesday.

Impact Gollini's absence shouldn't have a significant impact on the starting XI for the club as he was unlikely to unseat Alex Meret as the first-choice keeper anyway. Nikita Contini figures to remain the backup.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Stays out for Genoa game Gollini (hand) hasn't shaken off his injury and will remain on the mend for Saturday's match versus Genoa, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.

Unavailable against Lazio Gollini has been ruled for Saturday's game against Lazio due to a bruised hand, Corriere dello Sport informs.

Back in Naples Gollini has returned to Napoli on loan with option to buy from Atalanta, the teams announced.

JULY 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not retained by Napoli Gollini will return to Atalanta as Napoli didn't pick up their option to buy.

Impact Gollini was fine in some late appearances, but Napoli elected not to trigger their option to buy. They'll have to negotiate with Atalanta if they want him back. He's unlikely to stay in Bergamo.

JULY 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Unused in season finale Gollini didn't get the start in a 2-0 win over Sampdoria.

Impact Gollini notched three appearances after Napoli clinched the title, but not in this one. The club didn't activate their option to buy, so they'll have to negotiate with Atalanta if they want to bring him back. He had spent the first half of the season at Fiorentina but lost the duel for the starting job. He allowed six goals, made 18 saves, and kept two clean sheets in seven total games.

Impact Gollini conceded two goals Sunday, just his second match (in six starts) where he conceded a goal. He made two saves as well, tying his fewest in a match this season.

MAY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Keeps clean sheet Gollini kept a clean sheet, making three saves in Sunday's 1-0 win against Fiorentina.

Impact Gollini, starting against his former club in place of first-choice keeper Alex Meret, has kept a clean sheet in each of his two appearances for Napoli. He did well to twice deny Luka Jovic, but is unlikely to see much more playing time in the remaining fixtures.

MAY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Keeps clean sheet versus Atalanta Gollini recorded three saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 2-0 victory versus Atalanta.

Impact Gollini fared well as a fill-in starter but wasn't threatened too much overall. Alex Meret (wrist) will be assessed in the next few matches. He'll get the nod again if the starter's injury lingers.

Moves to Napoli Gollini has joined Napoli on loan with option to buy from Atalanta after leaving Fiorentina, the teams announced.

Starts in cup fixture Gollini (back) was selected in the initial XI to face Sampdoria in Coppa Italia Thursday.

Impact Gollini was unavailable for the first two matches of the year, but he returned to the squad list after Pietro Terracciano picked up a minor problem and was used over Michele Cerofolini. That should be the case also in Sunday's clash with Roma if the starter was unable to go. He has allowed two goals, kept two clean sheets, and made six saves in three matches this season.

JANUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Unavailable against Monza Gollini (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's match versus Monza, Fiorentina announced.

Impact Gollini dealt with the same problem before the break, but he had played in some friendlies. He might not be long for Fiorentina after losing the starting job to Pietro Terracciano, and he could be spared until he transfers. Michele Cerofolini will be the deputy while he's out.

JANUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Stays on bench in Milan clash Gollini (back) didn't play in Sunday's 1-2 loss to Milan.

Impact Gollini returned to the bench after some back pain, but he didn't star as in most Serie A contests this season since Pietro Terracciano continues going strong, while he had some gaffes when called upon in European Conference League. He has started just three times domestically, allowing two goals, making six saves, and keeping two clean sheets.

NOVEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Called up versus Milan Gollini (back) has been named in Fiorentina's squad list to face Milan Sunday.

NOVEMBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Salernitana match Gollini (back) isn't part of Fiorentina's squad list to face Salernitana Wednesday.

Impact Gollini has been in and out of the call-ups due to a bad back in recent weeks and might be shut down for the last two matches. In any case, Pietro Terracciano has always started in the recent Serie A matches, and also did it in the last one in European Conference League since the teammate wasn't fully it.

NOVEMBER 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Available versus Inter Gollini (back) has been named in Fiorentina's squad list to face Inter Saturday.

Impact Gollini returns to the squad list after dealing with back soreness last week, but Pietro Terracciano has been the clear starter in the last few matches.

Unavailable versus Lecce Gollini wasn't named in Fiorentina's squad list to face Lecce Monday due to back pain, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.

Impact Gollini picked up the problem during the midweek Conference League match versus Hearts and won't be an option for this one, although Pietro Terracciano has routinely manned the goal in the recent domestic fixtures. Michele Cerofolini will serve as the second-string goalie.

OCTOBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Unused versus Atalanta Gollini (knee) didn't feature in Sunday's 0-1 loss to Atalanta.

Impact Gollini was available after a knee bruise, but Pietro Terracciano has won the starting job as far as Serie A fixtures are concerned for the time being. He should get the opportunity to change that by playing in the European Conference League.
