Anthony Taylor retires from refereeing after World Cup duties

Roma has decided to lodge an appeal against a travel ban imposed on supporters residing in Rome province ahead of Monday evening's fixture against Torino. The measure, issued by the CASMS, prevents residents of Rome province from attending the match, though no such restrictions apply to fans from elsewhere in the Lazio region—those supporters must hold a valid AS Roma membership card. The club will seek a revision of the decision through the appeal process, aiming to allow Rome province residents to travel to Turin for the away match. Free ticket sales began at 10:00 this morning, with the giallorossi hoping the appeal will overturn the restriction in time for supporters to join the squad in Piedmont.

Roma will lodge an appeal against an order preventing their supporters from attending Monday's away fixture against Torino. The CASMS has banned Roma fans residing in Rome province from attending the Monday Night match at the stadium, though no restriction applies to those living elsewhere in Lazio — though they must hold an AS Roma membership card. Free ticket sales began at 10 a.m. today. This is the second consecutive away trip where Roma supporters have faced a travel ban, following the fixture at Lecce. For the match at the Via del Mare, the restriction extended to all residents of Lazio region, with the away section closed entirely.

Marten De Roon is settling into his opening weeks as a Roma player after nine years at Atalanta. Head coach Gasperini, who worked extensively with the Dutchman at Bergamo, brought him in to strengthen the midfield following the departure of Neil El Aynaoui. De Roon has already featured in the closing stages of Roma's match against Lecce, and he has taken a lighter approach to his adjustment by sharing a social media post of a video call with fellow countryman Kevin Strootman, the former Roma midfielder, asking for advice about life in the capital. Strootman spent five seasons in giallorosso between 2013 and 2018, making 131 appearances and scoring 13 goals. He became a fans' favourite for his combative style and the passion he showed for the club. De Roon's post joked about the situation, using his Dutch connection to seek tips on settling in at Roma. De Roon wrote on social media: "Happy to be here. There is only one Dutchman to call when you want advice on Roma." The post reflected the 33-year-old midfielder's sense of humour as he begins life at the Stadio Olimpico, tapping into Strootman's experience of the club and the city to guide his early months in the Italian capital.
