Marash Kumbulla or Matias Vina to replace Gianluca Mancini vs Ludogorets

Andy Mattioli

Roma are ready to face Bulgarian side Ludogorets in a highly anticipated and key return leg in tonight’s Europa League fixture at the Olimpico in Rome where the fate of both teams in the competition will be decided.

Jose Mourinho is still dealing with some doubts regarding his preferred line-up for tonight.

Zaniolo, as most Italian media report, will come off the bench given his recent injury in Verona which prevents him from playing extended minutes.

Bryan Cristante is currently favored to start over Nemanja Matic alongside Mady Camara in the midfield. In the meantime, Mourinho also ponders the ideal replacement for Gianluca Mancini who is serving his suspension due to accumulation of yellow cards.

In his place, Marash Kumbulla or Matias Vina could start, reports Corriere della Sera.
