Hours before the kick-off to Roma’s Sunday fixture at the Marassi stadium against Genoa, Shevchenko announced his call-up list.
Genoa managed to recover Italian shot-stopper Salvatore Sirigu who had sustained an injury with the national team.
Important absences for the Rossoblù include captain Domenico Criscito, Felipe Caicedo and leading goal-scorer Mattia Destro.
The former Roma striker is dealing with a thigh injury and his unavailability for the match was a last minute decision taken by Shevchenko’s staff.
