Attacking midfielder Marek Hamsik has been ruled out of Napoli's Uefa Champions League trip to Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday after suffering a foot injury against Parma, the Serie A side said on Sunday.
.
Slovakian Hamsik came on as a late substitute against Parma on Saturday but was forced off just nine minutes later after suffering the knock.
.
Napoli said in a post on Twitter Hamsik had suffered a "serious knock on his left foot" and "is not included on the squad list for the Borussia-Napoli (game)."
.
Rafael Benitez's men will be looking to regroup ahead of a trip to Dortmund where a draw will be enough to send them into the knock-out stages ahead of their final Group F game at home to Arsenal on December 11.
.
Napoli currently sit second on the same points as Arsenal, who have a superior goals difference, but have a three-point cushion on Dortmund, who face Marseille away in their final group game.
