Ticket sales open for Roma's October fixtures against Genoa and Cagliari

Roma goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini has become a father for the first time, with his wife Ariel Serra giving birth to a son, Loen. The news was announced by the agency that manages the player's interests, which posted a message on social media: "E' arrivato un nuovo Top Player. Benvenuto Loen" ("A new Top Player has arrived. Welcome Loen"). The happy news comes at a time when Gollini has been prominent in recent weeks due to the absence of Mile Svilar. The 1995-born keeper has been in the spotlight for the Giallorossi while Svilar is out, and he has also been working to recover from the physical problem that forced him to miss Roma's most recent fixtures. The joy off the pitch arrives while Gollini is dealing with that fitness setback, which has kept him out of the squad's last matches. The birth marks a particularly important personal moment for the goalkeeper.

Roma goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini has become a father, with the birth of his first child, a son named Loen, to him and his wife Ariel Serra. The baby was born in the past few hours. The couple married on 30 May 2025 and announced the pregnancy in mid-August with a sweet message on social media: "Life, at times, gives you what you have always dreamed of, we have been very lucky. I LOVE YOU." The birth was announced by Top Player Agency, the agency that manages the goalkeeper's interests, with a post captioned: "A new Top Player has arrived. Welcome Loen." The news comes at the end of a particularly positive period for Gollini, who in recent weeks, helped by the injury to Mile Svilar, has won the starting shirt for Roma.

AS Roma have blocked a last-minute call-up for right-back Nahuel Molina to join Argentina's squad, despite the player's suspension being cut from seven matches to four. Argentina coach Scaloni had decided on the evening of the previous day to add Molina in extremis, which would have seen him join fellow Roma players Balerdi, Soulé and Castro in the national squad. The club of Trigoria stepped in and opposed the late call-up. Molina had been due to play the friendly against Costa Rica on 17 November before returning to Rome ahead of the league fixture against Parma. Gasperini and the club said no, and the full-back will remain in Rome to train with the other players not selected by their national teams. The suspension stemmed from a brawl in the World Cup final against Spain, and Molina had obtained the reduction from seven games to four before the call-up was made. Roma's refusal means the defender stays with the Giallorossi squad while Argentina play Costa Rica without him.
