Leo Ostigard
26-Year-Old
Genoa
Serie A
Returns in Sweden friendly
Ostigard (lower leg) bounced back for a 27-minute performance off the bench in Norway's friendly against Sweden on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Ostigard missed the final couple of Serie A clashes due to his leg injury, before which he was a key participant for Genoa, aiming to earn a starting role in Norway's back line. He replaced Torbjorn Heggem in the warmup match, and that change could be applied to the starting lineup in the World Cup opener against Iraq. In that case, Ostigard will be reliable as a solid aerial threat while increasing his side's chances of securing clean sheets.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Poised for Napoli move
Ostigard will head back to Serie A and is set to join Napoli on a permanent transfer, La Gazzetta dello Sport reports.
ANALYSIS
Ostigard showed well in six months at Genoa and Napoli took advantage of the opportunity to sign him for relatively cheap, as they will pay €5M plus potentially €3M add-ons in the future. He is formally replacing Axel Tuanzebe in the back, who was not retained from Manchester United, although the club is also dealing with a giant question mark related to the future of star center-back Kalidou Koulibaly.
