Roma will take on French club Cannes in their third summer friendly on Sunday, 26 July, kick-off 17:30. The match marks a significant step up in difficulty after Roma's opening two warm-up games, both against lower-league opposition and both finished 6-0. Gasperini's side will face a tougher test against Cannes, who are owned by the Friedkin Group, providing the coach with valuable insights into the work completed during the training camp so far. Cannes represents the first genuine examination of Roma's pre-season preparations. Gasperini will gather important information on squad readiness ahead of the new season. The coach is expected to field a midfield partnership of Cristante and the young player Bah due to limited alternatives in that area. In attack, Malen and Dybala are set to feature, with Dybala already showing excellent form during the build-up. Roma-Cannes will be broadcast live exclusively on DAZN. Supporters can watch via the DAZN app on smart TVs, gaming consoles including Xbox and PlayStation, or devices such as Amazon Fire TV Stick, Google Chromecast, and TIM VISION Box. Live updates will be available on Forzaroma.info and across Roma's social media channels on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

Roma legend Roberto Pruzzo has called for the club to make a high-profile acquisition in the transfer market, while radio pundit Orsi has criticised the window's progress so far. Speaking on Radio Radio, Pruzzo said: "Anyone can sign players for 50 million. Fans expect a coup like Malen. Now I expect the club to raise its level, without taking part in auctions that so far haven't made it look good. The delay on the market risks undermining Gasperini's work." Orsi added that while head coach Gian Piero Gasperini has not yet complained publicly, the lack of arrivals represents a disappointment. "Gasp isn't banging his fist on the table, even though nobody has arrived yet," Orsi said on the same station. "With D'Amico they haven't failed yet, but certainly this situation wasn't expected. A few other targets could have been acquired. At the moment the market is disappointing." The comments reflect growing frustration among Roma's fanbase and observers about the club's sluggish activity in what is a critical window under new manager Gasperini, appointed in 2025.
