De Rossi to rely on Koné-Cristante-Baldanzi midfield in Genoa showdown | OneFootball

Daniele De Rossi is seriously considering applying a major change to Roma’s line-up.

With the arrival of Mario Hermoso and given the Spaniard’s formidable condition, the Roma manager could opt for a 3-5-2 as soon as this Sunday vs Genoa.

In fact, Corriere dello Sport claims that Dybala and Dovbyk could play up front together with Hermoso slotting into the three-man defense.

At the same time, this will inevitably impact Roma’s midfield.

The newspaper states that it is looking more likely for Lorenzo Pellegrini to be replaced by Tommaso Baldanzi due to the skipper’s lack of fitness following a recent injury.

As things stand, De Rossi is expected to rely on a midfield of Koné, Cristante and Baldanzi, flanked by Angelino and Saelemaekers.
