The center-back was a significant acquisition over the summer, joining Roma on loan with an obligation to buy from Hellas Verona.
So far, he has only had two substitute appearances, totaling six minutes in Serie A. However, he is now in the starting XI for the Europa League clash this evening.
Ghilardi’s Future Remains Uncertain

There have been rumors that Ghilardi might pursue a loan in January for more playing time, but as it stands, no decisions have been finalized yet.

It’s important to note that Ghilardi is still young and showed promise during his time at Verona; however, with Roma’s highly organized setup, there is limited opportunity for experimentation.
Currently, they sit at the top of the Serie A table, conceding only six goals in the competition.
Thus, Gasperini remains committed to Ghilardi, providing him with a chance during this vital Europa League match.
