Como: a taboo to break as Roma seek first away win in 37 years

Roma trained on 7 October ahead of their Serie A fixture against Como on 11 October at 12:30 at the Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia. Wesley and Malen trained partially with the squad during the session, while Cristante remained sidelined and will miss the Como match. Rodrigo Mora and Koné returned to Trigoria after completing their international commitments. Soulé, Castro and Balerdi are expected back tomorrow following the completion of their international fixtures.

AS Roma are building back squad depth ahead of Sunday's trip to Como. Manu Koné and Rodrigo Mora returned to the capital on 7 October after international duty, while Matías Soulé, Santiago Castro and Leonardo Balerdi are set to rejoin on 8 October following Argentina's commitments, including the farewell match of Lionel Messi with the national team. Donyell Malen and Wesley both participated in part of training alongside the main group for a second consecutive day, and both are available for the Sinigaglia fixture on Sunday at 12:30. Bryan Cristante, however, will not be in contention; he continues to manage a knee problem sustained during the international break. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini has several days remaining to restore full squad continuity and finalise his selection for the weekend's encounter. The staggered returns mean Roma's preparations will stretch through the week, with the international window finally closing as players rejoin from their respective nations.

Scott Mc Tominay has obtained medical clearance and will be available for Napoli when they face Roma on 24 October in Serie A's eighth round. The development is significant for Roma's upcoming fixture at the San Paolo, as the midfielder will now be in contention for Napoli's squad. Roma travel to Naples for the league match on 24 October. Mc Tominay's availability strengthens Napoli's options ahead of the fixture.
