Roma are dusting themselves off after a tough loss to Inter, with focus now shifting to Friday's home fixture against Pisa. While the team looks to rebound, fans will have to wait a little longer for a key attacking spark.
Star forward Paulo Dybala remains sidelined, but there's positive news on his recovery from a knee injury. Recent check-ups have confirmed his rehabilitation is on the right track following surgery. The current plan targets a return to group training within the 45-day post-op window, with a careful, phased reintegration into matches to follow.
In more immediate defensive news, Gianluca Mancini is speeding up his own recovery process. Although he'll miss the Pisa clash, the defender is aiming to be back in contention for the significant Serie A encounter against Atalanta at the Olimpico on April 18th.
Looking ahead to that Atalanta match, manager Gianluca Gasperini is also working to bolster his squad options. He hopes to have both Jean-Daniel Akpa Akpro (Koné) and Wesley available again. Akpa Akpro missed the Bologna match, while Wesley picked up a knock while on international duty with Brazil.
