Lorenzo Pellegrini nears return to group training | OneFootball

Roma restarts from Trigoria, and Gian Piero Gasperini is back with one of his key players.

Lorenzo Pellegrini has returned to the Fulvio Bernardini Training Center after his long-awaited contract renewal, marking a step forward in the process that will gradually bring him back into the team’s fold.

The Giallorossi midfielder, however, is not yet ready to train with his teammates.

After recurring from a muscle injury to the rectus femoris in his right thigh, the player is completing the final stage of the recovery program developed by Roma’s medical and athletic staff.

The club remains cautious.

Pellegrini will continue with personalized training for a few days, avoiding overstretching his muscles that could jeopardize his final return. In the afternoon, after lunch, which will reunite the group following their return from the British experience, the team will return to training, but the former captain will not take part in the group session.

He will continue an individual program with the goal of reaching the best possible condition.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the plan calls for a possible gradual reintegration with the rest of the squad after mid-August.

The final green light could arrive around that time, allowing Pellegrini to return to regular training under Gasperini and be ready for his debut on August 24th against Fiorentina.
