Source: Forza Roma

Lorenzo Pellegrini and Marta Pandini attended an educational event at AS Roma's sports high school in Trigoria, where they spoke to young academy players about professionalism and the club's identity. The event, titled "School in the Game – Football Explained Through Science," brought together students and faculty to explore the intersection of academic learning and athletic development. Frederic Massara, the club's sporting director, was also present alongside other members of Roma's technical staff.

Pellegrini addressed the young players directly, emphasizing the responsibility that comes with wearing the Roma crest. He told them: "Wearing this badge on your chest is an honour and a responsibility for you and for us, because we Roma supporters are different from others, and it's rare that someone can teach us something in terms of love, belonging and passion." The captain also encouraged the academy prospects to enjoy their time on the pitch while constantly seeking improvement, drawing on his own experience of nearly 350 appearances with the club.

The morning covered scientific topics related to football, including nutrition for athletes and modern training technologies. Faculty members from the school, based at the Fulvio Bernardini training centre, led discussions designed to connect classroom learning with practical sports applications.

Redazione 8 maggio - 11:51 Lorenzo Pellegrini e Marta Pandini hanno vissuto una giornata speciale e hanno partecipato all’evento “Anche la scuola in campo! – Il calcio spiegato dalle scienze” organizzato nel Liceo Scientifico Sportivo AS Roma di Trigoria. All'iniziativa era presente anche il direttore sportivo Frederic Massara. Ecco il comunicato del club giallorosso: "Mattinata a scuola per Lorenzo Pellegrini e Marta Pandini, che alcuni giorni fa hanno partecipato all’evento “Anche la scuola in campo! – Il calcio spiegato dalle scienze”, organizzato dal Club all’interno del Liceo Scientifico Sportivo AS Roma di Trigoria, dove tanti ragazzi delle giovanili giallorosse svolgono il proprio percorso scolastico. Per gli studenti, un’occasione speciale per conoscere da vicino due calciatori professionisti ma anche per affrontare tutte le tematiche di carattere scientifico correlate al gioco più bello del mondo, con l’obiettivo di evidenziare il legame indissolubile che c’è tra l’attività scolastica e quella sportiva.Dopo il saluto introduttivo del Vice Preside, Prof. Ottavio Di Paolo, preceduto da quello del Chief Football Operating Officer dell’AS Roma, Maurizio Lombardo, e dagli interventi di Ricky Massara e Simone Canovi della direzione sportiva maschile e femminile, i docenti dell’Istituto Giovanni Paolo II – che tengono quotidianamente le proprie le lezioni all’interno del Centro Sportivo Fulvio Bernardini – hanno potuto approfondire temi come il ruolo dell’alimentazione per lo sportivo e le nuove tecnologie applicate ai metodi di allenamento, consentendo agli studenti di mettere a frutto le nozioni scientifiche apprese sui banchi di scuola “Portare questo stemma sul petto è un onore e una responsabilità per voi e per noi, perché noi romanisti siamo diversi dagli altri ed è raro che qualcuno ci possa insegnare qualcosa in termini di amore, di appartenenza e passione”, ha detto Lorenzo Pellegrini ai giovani calciatori presenti. “Quello che dovete fare andando al campo ogni giorno è divertirvi e pensare sempre a migliorarvi. Ancora oggi, dopo quasi 350 partite disputate con la Roma, vengo qui per imparare e capire in cosa posso migliorare per giocare la domenica”, ha concluso Pellegrini.

Roma Legend Giannini and Lazio Figures Discuss Derby as Giallorossi Chase Champions League

The Foro Messaggero, a cultural venue in Rome, hosted an event celebrating Italian sport alongside the Internazionali d'Italia tennis tournament. The occasion brought together tennis leaders Tathiana Garbin (women's national team captain) and Filippo Volandri (men's captain), who discussed the Davis Cup and Billie Jean King Cup on display. Garbin remarked: "The pressure that Italian athletes will have is a privilege that few can afford. Our players are aware of this honour and the burden of meeting expectations." Volandri added confidence about the team's prospects, noting Jannik Sinner's recent winning streak. The event also turned to football, with Roma legend Giuseppe Giannini addressing the upcoming Derby della Capitale scheduled for the following week.

Massara set for Marseille move; El Shaarawy injury concerns ahead of Parma clash; Roma eye Lautaro Rivero

Roma sporting director Massara appears set to leave the club and join Ligue 1 side Marseille. Federico Balzaretti, a former Roma player now serving as Marseille's vice sporting director, reportedly suggested Massara's name to the French club. An initial conversation between Massara and Benatia has already taken place, and Massara is understood to be interested in the move. Roma is now searching for a replacement sporting director, with Mannaresta in pole position. Other candidates under consideration include Giuntoli, Pradè, and D'Amico. On the pitch, Roma trained ahead of a crucial away match against Parma in two days. However, El Shaarawy sustained an injury during training and is now a doubt for the trip to Emilia. Lorenzo Pellegrini remains unavailable, continuing individual work away from the squad and unlikely to feature. The club continues to pursue defensive reinforcements in the transfer market, with young Argentine centre-back Lautaro Rivero from River Plate emerging as a target. Alajbegovic is also being monitored for potential future moves. Gasperini will hold a press conference tomorrow. Confirmation has also arrived regarding Roma's new second kit for the 2026–27 season.

Gasperini to hold pre-match press conference ahead of Parma clash

Roma head coach Gian Piero Gasperini will hold his pre-match press conference tomorrow at 13:30 at the club's Trigoria training ground, ahead of Sunday's away fixture against Parma at 18:00.

During the conference, Gasperini is expected to address injury concerns among the squad, with Lorenzo Pellegrini's fitness status likely to draw particular attention. The technical staff will also provide updates on the squad's wider condition and outlook for the immediate future. The match represents an important opportunity for Roma to maintain momentum in their push for European football next season.
