Dybala suffers muscle strain ahead of Rome derby

In addition to the defeat against Torino, Paulo Dybala’s injury became also a concern for the Giallorossi.

The Giallorossi’s number 21 felt pain in the first half when taking a free kick.

In the second half, Gasperini preferred not to risk him and substituted him.

At the end of the match, the coach explained: “I don’t think it’s anything serious, but I can’t tell you how long it will take.”

The Argentine is suffering from a muscle strain in his left thigh, reports Sky Sport.

His condition will be monitored over the next few days.

In a week, Roma will return to the Olimpico for the Rome derby against Lazio.

The feeling is that if the injury is confirmed, Gasperini could at least put him on the bench for the derby.
