Roma tile: risk long stop for Paulo Dybala

Roma è are anxious about the condition of Paulo Dybala, who was forced off at 36' of the first half during the last league match against Cagliari. Initial evaluations would have shown a sprained left knee injury, but the fear for Giallorossi fans would be the possibility that the problem could affect the collateral ligament.

As reported by "Il Messagero", if the negative feelings were confirmed the Argentine star could be in the pits for more than two months.

"I have not spoken with the doctors. I only spoke with him after the game and he is not è optimistic. We will see tomorrow, I think he knows his body well and he has great experience. It's sad, but let&#39s see tomorrow" these were the words of Giallorossi coach José Mourinho in the press conference after the match with Cagliari.

At the end of last season Napoli è boasted the title of champion of Italy, the third in its history. In the previous two years the scudetto had been won by Milanese teams, first Inter and then AC Milan. Before that, for nine seasons in a row, it had gone to Juventus, which was able to win it with first Antonio Conte on the bench (three successes for the Salento native), then Massimiliano Allegri (five) and then Maurizio Sarri, who però was then replaced by Andrea Pirlo. At the beginning of the millennium, before the’exploit of Spalletti’s Napoli, the last two Scudettos had come from teams with non-vertical striped jerseys: Lazio won it in 2000, Roma in 2001.
