Overview

• Sky Sport reports via Football Italia that Leon Bailey is the only guaranteed absentee for Roma’s next match after a training injury in his first session with the club.
• Football Italia adds that Bailey is not expected back until after the October international break, though timelines vary across outlets.
• Paulo Dybala has been training separately as he recovers from a hamstring problem and is unlikely to start, with a bench role possible if included.
• Yahoo Sports/ChiesaDiTotti report Dybala is aiming for an early-October return following his late‑August comeback from spring tendon surgery.
• Coach Gian Piero Gasperini is expected to manage Dybala’s minutes conservatively to reduce the risk of recurrence.
