Roma away allocation sells out in under 24 hours for Old Trafford trip

Radio commentators have raised concerns about Roma's preparation ahead of their Champions League fixture against Real Madrid, scheduled for next week. Nardo asked on TeleRadioStereo whether Roma are truly ready for the encounter. Other analysts highlighted potential squad-rotation issues as players return from international duty. Frenquelli noted on Radio Romanista that Balerdi and Soulé may not be deployed immediately given their late return, but said there is no cause for concern yet regarding Wesley and Malen. Mirabella observed that Roma's functional squad numbers only 24–25–26 players. Bighi, however, expressed worry about Wesley and Malen's fitness, reporting that both have continued training separately from the main group.

Roma's allocation of 3,000 tickets for the Champions League fixture at Manchester United on 3 November (21:00 at Old Trafford) sold out within 24 hours of sales opening on 6 October at 16:00. The rapid sell-out occurred during the first phase, reserved for holders of a PLUS Series A season ticket for 2026–27, and prevented the subsequent general sale from opening at all. The fixture is Roma's fourth league-phase match in this season's Champions League campaign. The club has implemented a structured ticketing process across three phases. The first phase, running from 16:00 on 6 October to 18:00 on 9 October, required purchasers to enter their PLUS subscription PNR and date of birth via the official website. Tickets could be registered to someone other than the subscription holder during this phase. Each transaction allowed a maximum of one ticket per person. Had tickets remained available after the priority window, general sale would have begun at 12:00 on 12 October and run until 18:00 on 15 October, requiring a personal MYASR account for access and again limited to one ticket per transaction. Roma clarified that the PDF voucher issued at purchase is not valid for stadium entry; the actual mobile ticket with NFC technology will be sent to the email address provided during voucher purchase no later than 18:00 on 2 November. The name entered at purchase cannot be changed afterwards. Data provided at booking will be transmitted to Italian and British authorities for public order purposes. Information on meeting points and stadium access procedures will be communicated through Roma's official channels by 2 November. Wheelchair users must submit ticket requests to the club by 18:00 on 15 October.

Roma have opened ticket sales for their Champions League trip to Manchester United on 3 November at 21:00. From today, Tuesday 6 October, at 16:00, supporters can purchase tickets exclusively online through the official Roma website. The match falls on matchday four of the Champions League league phase. The sale process requires fans to first buy a PDF voucher, which will later entitle them to receive the official ticket via email for access to the away section at Old Trafford. Only one ticket per transaction is permitted throughout the sale. The final mobile ticket with NFC technology will be sent to the email address provided during voucher purchase by 18:00 on Monday 2 November 2026. Manchester United represents one of the most anticipated fixtures of Roma's European campaign this season. Old Trafford carries difficult memories for the club but also stands as one of the most prestigious stages in the Champions League. Gasperini's squad will aim to rewrite that history, supported again by their travelling supporters. The fixture comes after Roma's opening European match against Fenerbahçe and ahead of two home matches against Real Madrid and Slovan Bratislava.
