Renato Sanches has been with Roma for less than 10 days and has already caused concern after withdrawing from today’s training session in pain.

The 26-year-old Portuguese midfielder joined the Giallorossi last week on a €1m loan deal with a €15m conditional obligation to buy clause attached, linked to playing 60% of the total matches.

He was one of two midfield reinforcements for Jose Mourinho’s squad in the Italian capital following Nemanja Matic’s move to Rennes, alongside Paris Saint-Germain teammate Leandro Paredes.

As highlighted by Calciomercato.com, Renato Sanches withdrew from Roma’s training session in Trigoria today, complaining of muscle pain. He’ll undergo a round of medical tests in the coming hours to understand the seriousness of his injury.

He could be forced to miss out on Roma’s upcoming Serie A clash with Hellas Verona, scheduled for August 26. The 26-year-old saw 25 minutes of action in the club’s season opener against Salernitana.
