Gervinho reveals Inter, Juventus and Milan showed interest before he chose Roma in 2013

Roma supporters have turned out in force ahead of Manchester United v Roma, a Champions League League Phase fixture in the fourth matchday, due to kick off at 21:00 at Old Trafford. More than a thousand Giallorossi fans gathered at the meeting point and then walked together towards the Red Devils' stadium, singing and waving scarves along the way. Among the chants and yellow-and-red scarves, a light-hearted sticker featuring head coach Gian Piero Gasperini made an appearance. The Roma boss has been placed on a London Underground sticker, where the classic "Mind the Gap" warning has been changed to "Mind the Gasp". Manchester United supporters have been chanting "Watch out for the Gasp" for days. The sticker plays on the familiar warning shown on the London Underground, which tells passengers to mind the space between the platform and the train. The wordplay has turned the Italian coach into a talking point among fans in the build-up to the match, which is part of the 2026-27 Champions League league phase.

Argentina boss Scaloni has called up Roma trio Matías Soulé, Leonardo Balerdi and Santiago Castro for the national team's upcoming friendlies. Argentina face Uruguay and Costa Rica in the coming weeks. Soulé, Balerdi and Castro are all current Roma players, and their selection is a boost for the Giallorossi with the internationals approaching. Each will now join up with Argentina's squad ahead of the matches.

Argentina head coach Lionel Scaloni has named his squad for the next two friendlies, against Uruguay and Costa Rica, and three AS Roma players have been included: Matías Soulé, Santiago Castro and Leonardo Balerdi. The call-ups are a confirmation for the three players, who had already been selected by Scaloni for Argentina's most recent fixtures. The three are coached at club level by Gian Piero Gasperini. Alongside them, Serie A is represented in the Argentina squad by Troilo (Parma), Perrone (Como) and Mastantuono (Fiorentina). The squad list for the Uruguay and Costa Rica matches gives Roma's Argentine contingent continued international recognition under Scaloni, with Soulé, Castro and Balerdi all involved in the national team set-up for these friendlies.
