Ndicka and Dovbyk will be back after physical issues and rest on Thursday. Lorenzo Pellegrini will also be available to Juric despite having a muscle strain in the thigh.

The first day of what promises to be a scorching weekend at Trigoria has begun. The Friedkins have cancelled the three flights scheduled for today and their arrival has been delayed, but even with a potential positive outcome in tomorrow’s match against Bologna, the fate of Ivan Juric seems to be sealed. The red and yellow team will be locked in combat tomorrow at 3:00 PM in a match against Italiano’s squad in an environment that, due to fans’ objections and internal issues, has become absolutely unbearable. The Friedkin family has, undoubtedly, started to look around for solutions. According to various sources, there has already been contact with Roberto Mancini, former manager of the Azzurri, concerning the managerial position at Roma. The Friedkin group is expected to respond. According to a report from SkySport, the contact between the property and the coach reportedly took place yesterday, and, according to the same source, the former technical commissioner of the National team did not confirm having spoken to the American presidents. However, Mancini is not the only profile contacted: the property is also considering international profiles for the technical leadership of the team. Meanwhile, at Trigoria, work continues apace, and Ivan Juric has spoken at a press conference on the eve of the clash with Bologna. “Ndicka has recovered; he had a virus, he has also taken some rest. In my opinion, we have given it our all after Florence. Stay tuned for the live conference with Juric on the match between Roma and Bologna.” I do not feel the need to take a step back, perhaps others should. My conscience is clear, I’ve always worked hard. It’s not easy because sometimes I have the team in my hand, but then it disappears. I’m not sure what it’s all about, but it’s the reality. “I’ve seen plenty of improvements in some matches, but darkness in others,”
He further added, “Our performance against Verona was very positive, even better than our game-level against Torino.” We’ve taken some outrageous goals. I’ve seen the team move well. There are details to be improved, but that’s normal in the beginning. In Belgium, I’m not looking for excuses, I can’t see the soul of the team. “I see the sprint but not the focus, just like with Fiorentina.”

Therefore, Paulo Dybala won’t be there for tomorrow’s match against Bologna. As confirmed by both the coach’s words in the press conference and the squad list published in the evening: Hermoso is also out, still recovering from injury. Both Ndicka and Dovbyk will likely return from the first minute after their physical issues and Thursday’s rest. Also present is Lorenzo Pellegrini, who will be available to Juric despite a muscle strain in his thigh. While pondering the new coach, the Friedkins are also making moves on the CEO front: The new name buzzing around is that of Marzio Perrelli, the Executive Vice President of Sky Italia. He is unquestionably a distinctive figure as compared to Giovanni Carnevali and Alessandro Antonello, focusing more on the communicative aspect rather than the sports or administrative side.
