Wesley and Evan Ndicka are back with the squad for training, a huge lift for Roma as they prepare for Saturday’s monumental Serie A showdown against Inter at Stadio Olimpico. This isn’t just any game, either: these are the top two teams in the league, the only ones rocking a 100 per cent record after four rounds. So yeah, the stakes are absolutely bonkers.
The Reinforcements Are HERE
Seriously, getting Wesley and Ndicka back in action is huge. Coach Gian Piero Gasperini had to go without both of them for that Monday night victory away to Torino, but today, they’re back training with the rest of the crew. Ndicka had been sidelined with nasty flu symptoms, not even making it to the bench. Wesley, meanwhile, was rested after picking up a bruise in that 1-1 Champions League draw away to Fenerbahce. Having these guys back is massive, especially when you’re facing a side like Inter.
One Step Forward, One Step Back
But hold up, it’s not all sunshine and roses. Defender Mario Hermoso is now working separately from the main group, dealing with an ankle issue. He picked up a knock to that ankle during the Torino game, the same match Wesley and Ndicka missed. Talk about frustrating timing! While Roma has to deal with this fresh injury headache, Inter isn’t exactly laughing all the way to the bank. They’ve got their own problems, including the likely absence of Hakan Calhanoglu. So, it’s a battle of who can patch themselves up best before the whistle blows.
Saturday evening at 17.00 UK time, 18.00 CEST, is gonna be epic. Roma needs to figure out this Hermoso situation quick because holding onto that perfect record against Inter is gonna take everything they’ve got. This isn’t just three points; this is about showing the rest of Serie A who the real boss is right now.
