A month and four days is how long the absence among the squad lasted Nicholas Zalewskiwho returned yesterday to the list in which he had not appeared since the match against Juventus on September 1st. The Pole, in Monza, will therefore be available to coach Ivan Juric, who will have an extra alternative on the flanks. Zalewski had already been training with the group for about ten days, but only yesterday did the club receive the green light for the call-up. In Trigoria they appreciated the professionalism and commitment of the 22-year-old who had been placed on the sidelines of the technical project after the hesitations about the renewal and the refusal to Galatasaray, underlines the Gazzetta dello Sport.
In the coming weeks, the parties will return to the negotiating table to avoid leaving in June on a free transfer. Two alternatives will be evaluated: the extension of the contract with an increase in salary (today of 500 thousand euros) or the transfer in January. Now, however, Nicola is only thinking about his new debut. And already today against Monza it can be useful, before matches against Poland in view of the two matches against Portugal and Croatia (Nations League).
THE LATEST TRAINING
The latest from Monza
Monza will face Roma at home with at least six unavailable players. Alessandro Nesta’s choices are almost obligatory. Up front Djuric will be supported by Caprari and Maldini, while in midfield Pessina could return to the center of the department paired with Bondo. On the outside we are moving towards the confirmation of Pedro Pereira and Kyriakoupoulos. In defense Izzo and Carboni will move in front of Turati together with Caldirola who will take the place of Pablo Marì who is not in the best condition. (from Monza, Luca Cilli)
The latest from Rome
Juric could opt for a balanced formation, confirming his 3-4-2-1. Between the posts, there will always be him, Mile Svilar. In defence, the trio of Mancini, Ndicka and Angeliño will have to keep the attacks of a wounded Monza at bay and eager for redemption. On the outside, there will be space for Celik and El Shaarawy, called upon to provide thrust and cover in the defensive and offensive phases, while in the center of the pitch Konè and Pisilli will have the task of guaranteeing balance and construction of the game. Up front, Soulé and Baldanzi will act behind center forward Dovbyk, with the aim of exploiting their technical skills to create scoring opportunities and put the Brianza rearguard in difficulty. Le Fee’s condition remains to be verified as he will return to training with the group today. (from Rome, Debora Carletti)
