Roma travel to Udine with Mora and Soulé behind Malen; Svilar, Koné and Dybala out

Source: Forza Roma

Roma head to Udine tomorrow to face Udinese at the Bluenergy Stadium, with Gian Piero Gasperini's squad list released in the afternoon. Mile Svilar, Manu Koné and Paulo Dybala are absent, all already announced as unavailable. Young Roma players Di Nunzio and Camara have been called up again.

The match comes at a delicate moment, as Roma must deal with fatigue on top of the injury absences. Ghilardi starts at centre-back from the first minute in place of Gianluca Mancini. In attack, Mora and Soulé operate behind Donyell Malen in the trequartista area.

Udinese coach Kosta Runjaic spoke at his pre-match press conference: "Roma are fighting for the scudetto. They are strong, but we don't set off without hope. Davis and Zaniolo are not at 100% but they will play."

Italiano hails Castro's goal against Genoa as 'a champion's move'

Former Bologna coach Vincenzo Italiano has praised Roma striker Santiago Castro after his goal against Genoa, calling it "a champion's move". Italiano, now enjoying his experience in Istanbul, spoke to Gianluca Di Marzio on Sky Calcio Unplugged and singled out the Argentine's finish as the highlight of the recent match. Italiano worked with Castro during his time at Bologna, where the two spent two seasons together. The former boss said the forward has a natural flair for the spectacular and that he has seen it on the training ground. The praise comes as Castro's goal put him back at the centre of attention around the club. Italiano said: "Against Genoa he scored a great goal, a move worthy of a champion. Santi has those kinds of moves in him. In training, in those two years at Bologna, he kept inventing moves like an Argentine, a player who inside the box has so often managed to score important goals."

Roma travel to Udinese in home red; Dybala out; Desideri doubts January market

Gian Piero Gasperini has named a 22-man squad for Roma's trip to Udinese on Saturday 31 October at 18:00 at the Bluenergy Stadium, in Serie A matchday 10. Paulo Dybala will miss the match, as the coach had already indicated, while young players Di Nunzio and Camara are included. The goalkeepers are Vasquez, De Marzi and Gollini. The defenders are Rensch, Koulierakis, Ndicka, Molina, Hermoso, Mancini, Balerdi, Wesley, Lulli and Ghilardi. The midfielders are Cristante, De Roon, Pisilli, Di Nunzio and Mora, and the forwards are Castro, Malen, Soulé and Camara. The kit colours have also been confirmed. Roma will play in their traditional red first shirt, while the goalkeeper will wear yellow. The Giallorossi players on the bench will wear blue bibs. The match in Friuli is Roma's last league fixture before the European trip against Manchester United, scheduled for 3 November. Former Roma and Udinese midfielder Stefano Desideri spoke to Romanews on the eve of the match, analysing Roma's current form and their prospects for the rest of the season. Desideri does not fully share the criticism linked to fatigue after the win over Cagliari. He said: "With all the rotations and the adjustments, Roma have held up more than well," recalling the many closely spaced matches and injuries. He also praised Cristante, whom he considers "more and more of a leader" and a reference point for the younger players, and De Roon, whose impact he described as "impressive". In the table, Desideri places Roma and Inter ahead of their rivals, while acknowledging the surprising results of Lazio and the work of Como, who could remain at a high level until the end. On Udinese, he admits he did not expect such a difficult start: "They must pull themselves out by any means" to avoid getting drawn into the relegation battle. Looking ahead to the winter window, Desideri said he does not expect big deals: "I don't believe much in it." Nonetheless, he feels Gasperini's side could need "another midfielder" and "a winger", provided there are concrete and convenient opportunities. Roma are also weighing possible reinforcements for the winter window. Among the names linked with the club is Lisandro Martínez, the Argentine defender at Manchester United, whose contract expires on 30 June. According to the Spanish newspaper AS, Barcelona and Atlético Madrid have set their sights on the player. In Italy, Inter and Como are reportedly also evaluating the centre-back's profile, alongside Roma, to strengthen their defensive department.

Svilar's recovery continues with a boot brace and gym work

Roma goalkeeper Mile Svilar will not be available to Gian Piero Gasperini until after the November international break, with his recovery from injury still progressing. The Serbian is wearing a brace on his foot while doing gym sessions as he works back to fitness. Svilar, a Serbia international and a goalkeeper who joined Roma from Benfica in July 2022, is one of the club's first-choice options between the posts. Losing him for the coming weeks means Gasperini must rely on his other goalkeepers while the recovery continues. The report comes from Forzaroma.info, which published the update on 30 October 2026 at 15:30 and includes a video from the Deltacoaching.be Instagram profile showing the goalkeeper's rehabilitation work.

Gasperini sets up Roma's Udine trip with Malen and Mora starting; Dybala's return after the break in question

Gian Piero Gasperini has no fully fit options for Roma's trip to Friuli, and Donyell Malen and Rodrigo Mora are set to start in Udine. Mora is due to play alongside Matías Soulé, who is positioned behind the centre-forward. Paulo Dybala's return from the international break remains a question mark. Soulé's recovery time from his injury risks stretching out. The absences leave Gasperini with a thinner squad for the away fixture at Udinese in Friuli, and the coach is weighing up whether Dybala can return straight after the break. Roma's trip to Udine comes as the club looks to keep its form on the road in Serie A.
