Roma to launch major fan survey on new stadium plans

Roma have officially extended the contract of Emanuele Lulli until 30 June 2031, with coach Gian Piero Gasperini expressing satisfaction ahead of the Cagliari match. The club's news roundup, published after the 3-3 draw at Napoli, also covered fitness updates, Gasperini's comments on the injured players, and Napoli's appeal against Massimiliano Allegri's suspension. Roma now turn their attention to the home fixture against Cagliari. Gasperini gave an update on the injured players in his press conference. Paulo Dybala is the player closest to a return and could be named among the substitutes, a decision expected after the afternoon training session. Manu Koné is unlikely to return before the international break. Mile Svilar's availability is closer, and he could return within the week, or at the latest for the matches against Manchester United or Sassuolo. Gasperini praised the progress of the team and of individual players, with a mention for Matías Soulé, who was prominent at the Maradona. He said Roma are showing courage, solidity and continuity, and coming through well against top-level opponents. Cagliari coach Fabio Pisacane described Roma as a side that "rarely goes to the canvas", highlighting their ability to recover ground and stay dangerous when they push forward. He said Cagliari must identify and exploit the few weaknesses in the Giallorossi while staying focused and intense throughout the match. Roma officially confirmed the renewal of Emanuele Lulli until 30 June 2031. The winger, who made his professional debut and scored his first goal against Genoa, has signed a five-year deal confirming the club's intention to build around him for the future. Gasperini said: "Lulli's progress has been remarkable" in recognition of a player born in 2007 who has been rewarded with a long-term contract. Napoli have rejected the decision of the Giudice Sportivo and announced an appeal against the two-match suspension handed to Massimiliano Allegri after the 3-3 draw with Roma. The Napoli coach had been punished for protests directed at match officials in the tense closing stages at the Maradona. In a club statement, Napoli said: "La SSC Napoli, in seguito alla richiesta di accesso agli atti, comunica che presenterà ricorso per le due giornate di squalifica inflitte a mister Massimiliano Allegri."

Amanda Martins, wife of Roma full-back Wesley, has announced their separation in a video posted to her Instagram profile, making serious accusations against him and confirming the end of their relationship. Wesley is one of Roma's standout performers this season, and the matter has drawn wide attention on social media in recent hours. Amanda said she decided to speak out "given all the rumours that are circulating", describing repeated infidelity and a lack of respect. She said: "He doesn't owe me anything any more, because today we are separated. And that doesn't make much difference, because even when he had duties towards me, he still disrespected me. He didn't cheat on me once, not twice, not three times, but a great many times. And not with one woman, nor two, but with many, including prostitutes. And I know these things because I saw them." She went on to describe her suffering: "I have already cried all the tears I had. I gave him a great many opportunities to confess, but he kept lying. He never asked for forgiveness: he thinks everything he has done is normal." Her accusations also extend to her pregnancy: "Even during the pregnancy I was betrayed and abandoned. I never made any of these things public. I forgave, I tried to build a family, but it didn't work. When a person is like that, they don't change." Finally, Amanda described incidents in bars and restaurants and their psychological toll: "I am telling you only a very small part. I had reached the point where I no longer felt comfortable even leaving the house. In restaurants he would ask the waitress for her number, or other girls waiting for the bathroom. When he drinks he has no self-control. I began suffering from anxiety attacks, something that had never happened to me before. At times I blamed myself. But when a man is no good, it doesn't matter."

Amanda Martins, wife of Roma winger Wesley, has announced the end of their marriage in a lengthy and harsh statement posted on her Instagram profile, accusing the Brazilian of repeated infidelity. The allegations have quickly spread across Italian and Brazilian media and represent a painful private storm for the Giallorossi player. In her post, Martins says she discovered numerous betrayals, including during her pregnancy, and explains why she chose to make public a matter that had until now remained private. She said she decided to speak after numerous rumours circulated on social media. The statement describes a story filled with bitterness, and she claims the infidelities involved other people, with prostitutes reportedly among those involved. Martins also says she discovered the situation through the footballer's phone, where she claims to have found photographs and videos. These are accusations made by his wife, and their truthfulness has not been independently verified. Martins said: "I never thought I would end up here, on my Instagram, opening up about a very important part of my life, which was my marriage." She continued: "He no longer owes me anything, because today we are separated. And that doesn't make much difference, because even when he had duties towards me, he still disrespected me." On the pregnancy, she said: "I was betrayed and abandoned even during my pregnancy." She explained that she initially chose to forgive and try to rebuild the relationship: "I accepted everything in silence, I forgave, I really tried to build a family, to have a solid marriage. But it didn't work." She also described the emotional toll, saying she went through moments of deep suffering and began suffering from anxiety attacks. She said she gave her husband many chances to clarify the situation without receiving the answers she sought. "I have already cried all the tears I had to cry," she said, describing the shock she felt after her discoveries. Wesley has not publicly responded to the new accusations. The separation announced on social media marks a new chapter in the personal life of the Roma full-back.
