Roma are again worrying about the fitness of star man Paulo Dybala, who went off at half-time in the Europa League against RB Salzburg with a thigh issue.
The Argentina international has struggled with muscular problems all season, including during the 2022 World Cup campaign, where he made far fewer appearances than he would’ve liked.
It seems as if those concerns are flaring up yet again, as Dybala was substituted at half-time during the Europa League play-off with RB Salzburg in Austria this evening.
There was no immediate word as to what had caused the change, but Sky Sport Italia report La Joya was later spotted on the touchline with a heavy strapping to the right thigh, in the general area of the flexor.
More tests will be needed to see if Dybala has done damage and will need a longer lay-off, or if he’ll be available for the next Serie A match.
With Nicolò Zaniolo and Eldor Shomurodov leaving in the January transfer window, Jose Mourinho does not have many options in attack.
