For Roma, Paulo Dybala represents the missing piece to return to top form.
After completing an individual training session yesterday, the Argentine player isn’t worried: his absence was planned after the birth of his daughter.
Now that the number 9 (Malen) seems to have finally arrived, Roma is waiting to find their number “10” again to reunite the duo that has shown so much since their first outing in Turin almost two months ago.
Dybala, barring any surprises, is expected to return to the squad today, ready to respond against Genoa, where he played for former teammate De Rossi.
Gasperini will then evaluate whether to start him or use him during the match. Meanwhile, other players are recovering.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Hermoso, who is struggling with a groin strain, will undergo tests to assess his availability. Soulé, meanwhile, is undergoing treatment for groin pain and is aiming to return for the first leg against Bologna.
Ferguson, whose ordeal continues, is no better off: surgery is being considered.
