Just three strikers available as Roma name squad list for Rangers game

Roma only have three forwards available for their upcoming Europa League game against Rangers as Gian Piero Gasperini named his squad list on Wednesday.

Roma coach Gasperini has named his squad list for Thursday’s Europa League match against Rangers.

The Italian tactician will be short of options in attack with only Artem Dovbyk, Matias Soulé and Stephan El Shaarawy available.

Paulo Dybala suffered a muscle injury in the last game against Milan and is expected to return to action in a month. Evan Ferguson was already dealing with an ankle problem, while Leon Bailey was the last one forced to be withdrawn due to a hamstring injury.

Furthermore, Tommaso Baldanzi did not make the trip to Scotland as he’s not part of Roma’s UEFA list for the league phase of the Europa League.

Elsewhere in the team, left-back Angelino remains out of action for the Giallorossi.

Roma need points in Europe, having collected one victory and two defeats in the opening three games of the season.
