Alessandro Pajola has returned to training with Virtus Segafredo Bologna after a left knee injury. The team has struggled without him, especially in the Euroleague, which led to the dismissal of coach Dusko Ivanovic. However, Bologna remains top of the league table, and with three games left in the regular season, they are pinning their hopes on Pajola's return to help them win the Italian championship. The past few weeks have been tough for Virtus, with poor results, particularly in the Euroleague, where the play-in target has slipped away, physical problems with various players, and the dismissal of Ivanovic. The period began in late January, when Pajola injured his left knee meniscus. As the defensive and captain of the Vu Nere, the blue has effectively missed almost three months of challenges between Europe and Italy, but today he returns to train with his teammates. And although there are no defined timetables for his return to the field, Bologna, which remains top of the league table with three games left in the regular season, is cultivating hopes of being able to have him back at full strength for the start of the playoffs. And with Pajola back, Virtus will try to win the Italian championship after winning the scudetto last June.
