The friendly between Rome and Toulouse, scheduled for July 27 in Ancona, could be cancelled due to concerns about public order.

The temporal proximity of Napoli’s preseason, scheduled in Castel di Sangro starting from July 25, fuels tensions among fans.

A final decision will be made shortly, but anxiety about possible disorders is palpable.

The concern is also high on the August 3 friendly in Rieti against Olympiacos. Roma ultras are allied with those of Panathinaikos, historical rivals of the Greeks of Olympiacos, increasing the risk of clashes between the fans, writes Il Messaggero.
