His recovery time will be evaluated in the coming weeks,\u201d read a club statement.<\/p>\n<p>The news comes as a major setback for both Napoli and Cameroon, who had counted on the 28-year-old\u2019s leadership and experience heading into the continental showpiece in December.<\/p>\n<p>Anguissa has been one of Napoli\u2019s most consistent performers this season, featuring in both Serie A and the UEFA Champions League, while also recently being crowned Serie A Player of the Month for October.<\/p>\n<p>His absence adds to Napoli\u2019s growing injury list, with Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku already sidelined \u2014 a worrying situation for coach Walter Mazzarri as the Italian side battles on multiple fronts.<\/p>\n<p>For Cameroon, the loss of their midfield engine is equally alarming. Anguissa\u2019s absence leaves coach Marc Brys with a major tactical void to fill just weeks before the Indomitable Lions begin their AFCON campaign.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Copyright\u00a92025 kick442.com-Cameroon<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>All rights reserved.
