Lorenzo Pellegrini's scans are due tomorrow, after he left the pitch during the match against Slovan Bratislava with a muscle problem in his right thigh. Speaking after the game, Gian Piero Gasperini suggested he could be out for around 20 days, but the instrumental tests will give a clearer picture of the diagnosis and recovery time.

Roma News reports that Andrea Colombo of the Como section will referee Napoli-Roma on Saturday at 18:00 at the Maradona, with Bindoni and Rossi as assistants, Sacchi as fourth official, Aureliano on VAR and Meraviglia as AVAR. Retesport describes the match as Serie A Matchday 8 and says Napoli are managed by Antonio Allegri. Roma's record under Colombo is five wins, five draws and one defeat in eleven matches, while Napoli's is seven wins, one draw and three defeats in eleven meetings.

Wesley has drawn Premier League interest, with Manchester United reportedly monitoring the Brazilian winger and possibly trying to move for him in January, according to Roma News. Gasperini has said the club consider him untouchable and do not intend to sell in the winter window. Chelsea tested the market in the summer with a €50 million offer, which Trigoria rejected; Roma would only consider a significantly higher proposal. Pruzzo told Radio Radio that the strikers need more space, criticising Castro's lack of playing time and saying Mora is not yet ready, while Pes told TeleRadioStereo that Cristante and Pisilli are the right midfield pairing.

Gollini praises Roma's group and predicts a great career for Lulli

Pierluigi Gollini spoke to reporters after Roma's 9th-round Serie A win over Cagliari at the Stadio Olimpico, saying the points were heavy and keep the club in contention. The goalkeeper credited the squad for its depth and commitment. The Roma stopper said the team has played many matches and that it is normal to lose some sharpness at times, but that big teams find a way to win even when they are not playing their best. He said the group is giving a lot of answers and that everyone is always available, calling it a great credit that should be recognised. Asked whether he expected Lulli to be so strong, Gollini said: "We saw him in training camp and we thought he had great athleticism. Many times we have told him that the quality of his choices will determine his career. It will be up to him to learn to make the right choices. He has his head on his shoulders; every now and then I have to remind him to defend because he likes to attack, but he is super humble and he will have a great career." On whether his own performances are a response to doubters, Gollini said: "I have played little in recent years, but in training I see myself, and my teammates see me. Obviously football is a world that moves super fast; if you do nothing, it seems you are finished. Even though I have not played, I have always been in an environment of great level. I am happy to have had this chance now, even though we are sad for Mile. We have to keep going like this."

Roma give players a rest day after Cagliari win, return to training Thursday ahead of Udinese

Gian Piero Gasperini has granted his Roma players a day off after the 4-2 midweek win over Cagliari at the Stadio Olimpico. The squad will report back to Trigoria directly on Thursday afternoon, two days before Saturday's trip to Udinese. The Udinese match, counting for matchday 10 of Serie A, is scheduled for Saturday 31 October at 18:00. The break is a chance for the players to switch off and push towards the final stretch before the November international break. Between Saturday 31 October and Saturday 7 November, Roma face Udinese and Sassuolo in Serie A, as well as the important Champions League away trip to Manchester United on Tuesday 3 November. The Cagliari victory gave the players a reward after the midweek fixture, and the schedule now moves quickly from the weekend trip to Friuli into a busy run of matches against Udinese, Sassuolo and Manchester United.
