He has made three appearances so far this season under coach Maurizio Sarri, two substitute appearances against AC Milan and Cagliari, and a full 90 minutes in the 1-0 Europa League loss to Galatasaray.
His return will allow Sarri to rotate his attacking options a little, either slotting Zaccagni in on the wing or in a more central role.
