  "account": "Roma prepares for their upcoming clash against Sassuolo with a number of lineup concerns and a number of players in ill health. The match will be the Roman side's ninth game in a span of just 27 days. Mile Svilar, Devyne Rensch and Paulo Dybala are among the absentees, with Dybala training individually. The main focus of the medical team is on Manu Koné's condition, who is hopeful to make a comeback for the game against Neroverdi. Koné has been practicing individually and will undergo a critical evaluation today to determine his readiness. The Argentine player desires to be available immediately to Gasperini and also to represent France nationally. Roma is exercising caution due to Koné's lengthy absence and the impact this has had on his recovery. Pierluigi Gollini's availability is also questionable, as he is recovering from a back issue that kept him out of the Champions League away game against Manchester United. Medical staff at Trigoria are employing covert methods to expedite the goalkeeper's recovery for the Stadio Olimpico encounter. Devis Vásquez is prepared to start in Gollini's absence, marking his return to Serie A following his last appearance on May 25, 2025. Gianluca Mancini, who missed the resumption training session due to a workload management issue, is expected to compete for a starting position alongside Balerdi against Sassuolo. Gasperini will thus face several uncertainties before settling on the squad lineup, particularly in midfield and goal.",
