Roma have 2 fresh injury concerns for Celik and Hermoso

Roma have two new injury problems to deal with, as Zeki Celik pulled out in the warm-up of their trip to Torino, then Mario Hermoso limped off.

You can follow all the action as it happens from today’s Serie A games on the Liveblog.

The Giallorossi had initially named Celik in the starting XI on the right flank of a 3-4-2-1 formation, but were forced into a last-minute change.

He felt a twinge in his thigh during the warm-up and was replaced just before kick-off by Devyne Rensch.

The situation for coach Gian Piero Gasperini went from bad to worse, as Hermoso lasted only 22 minutes of the match before limping off the field.

The defender had treatment to his right hip before the medical staff gave the signal for a substitution, so he was replaced by Daniele Ghilardi.

Now it remains to be seen how bad these setbacks are, as Roma have a Europa League tie coming up on Thursday with Stuttgart, then next Sunday have a Serie A showdown with second-placed Milan.

There was at least some positive news for Gasperini, as Lorenzo Pellegrini made his comeback after a month out, while Donyell Malen scored on his debut.

Quick take: Injury outlook: depth players may get minutes, but the knock could strain the side’s rhythm. Recovery timelines will guide expectations; international duty could also be impacted. We’ll keep an eye on confirmed details as the story develops from official sources.
