De Roon to make first Roma start vs Como

Marten de Roon is set to make his debut start for Roma in an upcoming match against Como. The Dutch midfielder will take over the role in the midfield after Bryan Cristante's injury. Coach Oktay Gasperini trusts De Roon and believes he possesses the necessary experience, poise, and personality for the starting position. De Roon will be tasked with maintaining order, substance, and stability alongside midfielder Sid Ali Koné.

This is a considerable responsibility, particularly in a challenging matchup against Como. The international break worked in De Roon's favor, allowing him to maintain a regular training regimen at Trigoria and regain his peak fitness. With no international call-ups or travel, the midfielder utilized the time to prepare for the match that has been eagerly anticipated since his arrival at Roma.

The waiting will finally be over, as De Roon steps up to the plate against Como in an important encounter.
