Aina resumes training, undergoes late fitness test ahead Frosinone clash

Torino defender Ola Aina on Friday resumed training but will be subjected to further test to ascertain his level of fitness ahead of Sunday’s Seria A clash against Frosinone at the Stadio Benito Stripe.

Aina has been on the sidelines since last weekend after picking up an abdominal injury  during a pre-match warm up exercise as Torino were getting set to face against Chievo Verona at the Stadio Olimpico and had to be replaced at the last minute with Cristain Ansaldi.

According to a statement on the club’s website, Aina trained partailly with the team which has now eliminated the fear that he was set for a long spell on the sidelines.

“Afternoon session at Turin, in Philadelphia, on the main court. After the warm up, the coach Mazzarri did some thematic exercises and then a tactical training ahead of Sunday’s match in Frosinone. Aina worked partially with the group, while Lukic’s condition was assessed for a left calf discomfort felt at the end of yesterday’s session,”reads a statement on Torino’s official website.
