Mourinho clarifies the Argentine’s condition, but to have certainty, we will have to wait until tonight or tomorrow. There are concerns about his injury.
Roma – the entire Roma team is anxious about Paulo Dybala‘s condition. How is the Argentine? This is the question on everyone’s mind after the match against Cagliari, and even in Buenos Aires, as ‘La Joya‘ was supposed to join the Argentine national team tomorrow.
Instead, he will not be flying to South America, and this is the only certainty after the injury to his left knee that forced him to leave the Cagliari game in the first half after a collision with Prati. For the rest, it will be hours of waiting.
Mourinho said, “I am not optimistic because Paulo is not optimistic, and I trust the player’s feelings about his body. We will lose him for a while.” But for how long?
On DAZN, Andrea Stramaccioni echoed the thoughts of many: “It seems like a significant injury, but not too serious.” The sprain is certain, but the hope is that the cruciate ligament is not affected; there are concerns about the medial collateral ligament.
Dybala, when he will undergo knee exams
From the team, always very cautious in such cases, especially with a talent like Dybala, they remained reserved and speaked only of a “traumatic distortion of the left knee.” This is because it remains to be seen whether the knee will swell or not.
In any case, Mourinho’s and all Roman fans’ hope is one and the same: that his hands on his face on the field and his words to Mourinho in the locker room are merely a symptom of great fear and nothing more. However, it will be hours of anxiety and waiting for him and everyone involved.
