AS Roma will be facing Rangers in the Europa League with only three forwards at their disposal, as coach Gian Piero Gasperini announced his squad list on Wednesday.
Gasperini has confirmed the squad for Thursday’s Europa League match against Rangers.
Three Strikers Available for Roma vs. Rangers
With only Artem Dovbyk, Matias Soulé, and Stephan El Shaarawy fit, the Italian coach is facing a challenging situation in attack.
Paulo Dybala is sidelined due to a muscle injury suffered in the match against Milan and is expected to be out for about a month. Evan Ferguson is already nursing an ankle issue, while Leon Bailey recently left the lineup because of a hamstring injury.
Additionally, Tommaso Baldanzi did not travel to Scotland, as he is not included in Roma’s UEFA list for the Europa League phase.
Moreover, left-back Angelino continues to be unavailable for the Giallorossi.
With just one win and two losses in their first three games, Roma are in dire need of points in Europe.
