Roma, the conditions of the two midfielders
It’s raining cats and dogs at Roma. After seeing the victory against Genoa slip away in extremis, the Giallorossi also lose Alexis Saelemaekers to injury. The instrumental examinations to which the Belgian midfielder underwent, in fact, showed a compound micro-fracture in the ankle that will keep him in the pits for about two months.
The former Bologna man will be reevaluated in the coming days to determine whether surgery will be necessary. De Rossi’s hope would be to recover the player for the away match against Napoli, scheduled for Nov. 24.
Also keeping the Giallorossi apprehensive is Lorenzo Pellegrini, who è came out in pain from an unsanctioned clash with Sabelli in the final minutes of the match against Genoa. Earlier today, the captain of the capitolini will carry out the usual instrumental examinations to verify more clearly the'extent'of the injury.
