Wesley and Malen available for Como trip; Fabbri to referee

Roma will travel to Como in four days with head coach Gian Piero Gasperini preparing his squad for the match. Bryan Cristante is unavailable through injury, while Donyell Malen and Wesley have trained separately but pose no fitness concerns. Rodrigo Mora and Manu Koné returned to Rome today following the international break, with Matías Soulé, Santiago Castro and Leonardo Balerdi due back tomorrow. Como's prospects have improved ahead of the fixture. Moise Kean is recovering from muscle fatigue that forced him to leave the national team camp, and confidence is growing that he will feature against Roma. Como's director of sport Ludi addressed the upcoming match, saying: "It will undoubtedly be a stimulating match, extremely difficult against one of the strongest teams in the championship. We want to test ourselves seriously to prove we are their rivals." Michael Fabbri has been appointed as referee. Como's last meeting with Roma came in January, a 1–0 defeat at Atalanta where Scalvini scored an irregular goal after committing a foul on Mile Svilar.

Roma face Como on Sunday at 12:30 in Serie A matchday 6, with head coach Gasperini having to choose between three players for a single starting spot. Matías Soulé, Rodrigo Mora and Lorenzo Pellegrini are competing for the role, forcing the manager to make a key decision ahead of the fixture. Pellegrini has not played since 10 April 2026, when Roma beat Pisa 3-0. His last goal came a week earlier in Roma's 5-2 defeat at Inter. Soulé, the Argentine winger, started the three matches immediately before the international break—against Fenerbahce, Torino and Inter—but his fitness is uncertain following his journey back from Argentina after taking part in Lionel Messi's final appearance for the national team. Mora, meanwhile, has made limited impact recently, managing only 49 minutes across the last three games after impressing in his earlier displays against Fiorentina and Lecce, where he scored his first Roma goal. The poll posed to supporters asks the key question: should Pellegrini start the match at the Sinigaglia?

AS Roma are already planning reinforcements ahead of the January transfer window, with head coach Gasperini keen to add a forward to strengthen the squad. The primary target remains Endrick of Real Madrid, the Brazilian who was in Roma's sights last summer and continues to struggle for minutes under Mourinho, having played only four minutes so far. Real Madrid are open to allowing him to leave, even on loan. Milan are also interested, but Aston Villa have emerged as serious contenders. According to Cadena SER, the Birmingham club have moved to the front of the queue and hold an advantage over both Italian sides. Endrick's lack of playing time at the Bernabéu has made him available for a potential move away from Spain.

Roma travel to Como this weekend as Serie A resumes after a three-week international break, with the clash carrying direct implications for Champions League qualification. Historically, Roma's record against Como is strong overall—16 wins, 8 draws and 7 defeats—and the Giallorossi have won both recent meetings at the Olimpico: 2-1 in 2025 and 1-0 last season, when Wesley scored. Away at the Sinigaglia, however, the picture is starkly different. Since Como's return to Serie A, Roma have lost every fixture there, falling 2-0 and 2-1 in those contests. The last Roma victory away from home against Como stretches back 37 years. On 30 April 1989, Roma won 0-1 with a goal from Manfredonia in the 2nd minute; that match also featured a missed penalty from Giannini. A defeat also came in 2003, underlining Como's status as a venue where Roma have consistently struggled.

Rodrigo Mora and Koné returned to Trigoria after completing their international commitments. Soulé, Castro and Balerdi are expected back tomorrow following the completion of their international fixtures.
