Francesco Totti tops a new Transfermarkt ranking of the all-time leading goalscorers at individual Serie A stadiums, with 160 goals at the Stadio Olimpico. Two other current or former Roma players also feature in the list. Matías Soulé is placed 20th thanks to seven goals scored for Frosinone at the Benito Stirpe. Paulo Dybala, the all-time top scorer at Juventus's Allianz Stadium with 45 goals, makes up the third Roma name in the rankings. The ranking compares the players who have scored the most goals within a single stadium in the history of the top flight, placing Totti's Olimpico record at the head of the table.

Donyell Malen has been voted the best player in Serie A for September, the AIC (Italian Footballers' Association) announced. The Roma forward received the award today from AIC director general Gianni Grazioli. Malen has made a strong start to the season, scoring 6 goals in 6 league matches, plus 3 goals in 3 Champions League games.

Roma forward Donyell Malen has been named Serie A's Player of the Month for September, with the award presented today by the general director of the AIC (Italian Footballers' Association), Gianni Grazioli. Malen, a Dutchman, has continued to score and perform for Roma in both Serie A and the Champions League, and has 9 goals for the club across all competitions so far. Malen's form has been a consistent feature since his arrival in mid-January. In 29 matches he has scored 24 goals, a remarkable return. His September award was earned in part by his goal against Torino, alongside what the article describes as his usual strong performances. Grazioli presented the award to Malen directly today, recognising the Dutchman as the league's best player for the month of September.
