Roma unveil cream-coloured away kit for 2026–27 with vintage Adidas branding

Roma will operate with a skeleton crew at Trigoria during the twenty-day international break following the draw against Inter, with head coach Gian Piero Gasperini having only seven first-team players available for training and preparation. The available squad members are goalkeepers Mile Svilar and Pierluigi Gollini, defenders Mario Hermoso, Nahuel Molina and Devyne Rensch, midfielder Marten de Roon, and forward Paulo Dybala. Dybala will take a leave of absence during the break to travel to Argentina and participate in Leo Messi's farewell international match. All other players will be away on international duty with their respective national teams. To maintain training intensity and match fitness, Gasperini will draw heavily on Roma's Primavera squad, though the youth sector has also lost several players to Italian national selections at Under 17 to Under 19 level, including Arena, Bonifazi, Giammattei and Guaglianone. The club has arranged a pair of friendly matches to keep the team sharp during the pause.

AS Roma will resume training tomorrow afternoon, but Gian Piero Gasperini faces a significant squad shortage across the next 20 days as just seven players remain at the club's Trigoria training ground. The available players are goalkeepers Mile Svilar and Pierluigi Gollini, defenders Mario Hermoso, Nahuel Molina and Devyne Rensch, midfielder Marten de Roon, and forward Paulo Dybala—who will himself be unavailable for several days to participate in Leo Messi's international farewell match. All other squad members are away on international duty with senior or Under-21 national teams. To maintain adequate training numbers, Roma will need to draw heavily on players from the Primavera academy. However, several academy prospects including Arena, Bonifazi, Giammattei and Guaglianone are themselves unavailable, having been called up to youth international squads ranging from Under-17 to Under-19 level. The club has a pair of friendly matches scheduled during this period, according to Andrea Pugliese's report in La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Gianluca Mancini turned down a significantly richer offer from Inter this summer to remain at Roma, a decision driven by loyalty to the club. During Roma's big match against Inter, the Curva Sud paid tribute to the defender with a banner reading: "In a football where only money counts, there is someone who listened to his heart. Honour to Gianluca Mancini." Mancini, substituted during the match, rose from the bench and applauded the Roma supporters in return. The 23-year-old has become an idol to the Roma fanbase and earlier renewed his contract until 2029, cementing his future at the club. His decision to prioritise Roma over a more lucrative move underscores the strength of his commitment to the Giallorossi.
