Roma returns to the Olimpico to face Stuttgart in Matchday 7 of the Europa League League Phase.
This crucial match for the European standings was prepared for today at Trigoria between Gian Piero Gasperini’s press conference and the afternoon training session.
The coach worked on tactical details to compensate for the forced absences of Malen and Vaz, who are not UEFA members, and the injured Hermoso and Dovbyk.
Good news comes from the returnees: Neil El Aynaoui returned today from the Africa Cup of Nations and was immediately available, as was Zeki Celik, who recovered from the flexor muscle strain he suffered pre-match in Turin. Evan Ferguson is also fully recovered and ready to lead the attack.
Lulli and Morucci have been called up from the Primavera squad. El Shaarawy and Baldanzi remain out, with the latter excluded from the European squad.
