Manu Koné wants to return to the pitch.

The French midfielder was sidelined with a muscle injury early in the first half of Roma’s 3-4 Real Madrid match, but he’s almost ready to return to the pitch.

The 2001-born midfielder has recovered from the injury he sustained in the Champions League match, and Gian Piero Gasperini is expecting him to start again. The coach hopes to have him with him for Roma vs. Sassuolo.

Koné has overcome the muscle injury that prevented him from playing in the Roma-Real Madrid match.

As Corriere della Sera reports, the French midfielder has begun training separately on the pitch.

The 2001-born midfielder, like Dybala, could return to Gasperini’s squad ahead of the match against Sassuolo, the last before the international break scheduled for November 7 (8:45 PM).
