Benjamin Tahirovic was forced to forfeit yesterday’s friendly with Yokohama Marinos less than thirty minutes into the match due to fitness issues.
According to Corriere dello Sport, the Primavera player – who was recently praised by Mourinho and hoped to break though Roma’s ranks in the season’s second half – went down with a painful flexor muscle.
The Italian newspaper informs that the 19-year-old will undergo a medical visit upon the team’s return from Japan. The youngster hopes to avoid a lengthy stop in order to be at Mourinho’s disposal for Roma’s upcoming training camp in Portugal.
