Radja Nainggolan missed Cagliari training today due to a muscle strain, the Rossoblu club have explained in an official statement posted on their club website.

Cagliari did not provide details on the extent of the strain nor did they state if the former Belgian national team player will be sidelined for any amount of time.

The former Roma midfielder is currently out on loan at the Sardinian based club from Inter, who he will return to once his loan deal expires.

It does however remain to be seen what will happen with him upon his return to the Nerazzurri with contrasting reports currently circulating in the media.

Some reports state Inter will sell Nainggolan or try and use him as part of a deal for another player whilst others have suggested that there is a chance that he could be reintegrated into the Nerazzurri squad, a year on from being considered out of the project.
