Roma captain Lorenzo Pellegrini is expected to shortly make his recovery from a recent muscle injury.

The midfielder’s last performance dates back to 5 October when Roma beat Servette in the Europa League 4-0, marked by a goal and assist from Pellegrini.

In his brief 15-minute cameo Pellegrini injured himself and the prognosis revealed a stop of at least a month.

According to Leggo, Pellegrini’s recovery is proceeding as expected and the team skipper should be back on the pitch against Slavia Praha on 9 November with the objective of making it to Mourinho’s starting eleven for the Derby della Capitale a few days later.
