The Romania forward left the national team camp with a muscle injury, leaving head coach Massimiliano Alvini with two attackers down before Saturday's trip to the Maradona.
Frosinone have lost a second forward ahead of their trip to Naples. Daniel Birligea has pulled out with a muscle injury picked up at the end of Romania's Nations League match in Warsaw, joining Antonio Raimondo on the sidelines.
The Romanian Football Federation confirmed the news in a statement: "After the match in Warsaw, Daniel Birligea suffered muscle problems. Following medical examinations, it was found that he cannot play in tonight's match against Sweden. The Frosinone forward has already left the Tricolori camp. We wish Daniel good health and look forward to having him back stronger."
