Roma's injury woes continue to mount this season, casting a shadow over their crucial Serie A run-in. The latest setback involves defender Gianluca Mancini, who suffered a muscle tear in his right adductor. Initial tests confirmed the feared diagnosis, leaving little room for optimism within the club.

Despite the severity of the injury, there is a glimmer of hope on the medical front. The Giallorossi's staff is working tirelessly with the goal of making Mancini available for manager Gian Piero Gasperini ahead of a pivotal clash against Atalanta this Saturday. This fixture is a must-win, as Atalanta, led by Raffaele Palladino, have closed the gap to just one point behind Roma in the standings.

The potential return of Mancini is part of a broader, positive update for Gasperini. The situation appears similarly promising for midfielders Ibrahima Koné and Wesley. Both players are reportedly on track to be available for selection for the high-stakes encounter at the Stadio Olimpico. For Wesley, there is even an outside chance he could feature in the preceding match against Pisa, though his full fitness for the weekend remains the primary target.

If these recoveries stay on course, Gasperini could have nearly his full squad at his disposal—a significant boost as Roma battles to secure their European ambitions. The coming days will be critical in determining whether these key players can suit up and perform at their best when the pressure is at its peak.
