Yesterday’s win over Lecce saw Mats Hummels once again lead Roma’s backline in his third consecutive start for the Giallorossi.

The German’s positive spell under Claudio Ranieri continues after barely playing under previous Roma boss Ivan Juric.

With the arrival of Claudio Ranieri on the bench, Hummels has always been on the pitch and, with the exception of the match against Napoli, he has been deployed from the start on the last three occasions.

Yesterday, in the 4-1 victory at the Stadio Olimpico, the Giallorossi number 15 set a record for the 2024-25 Serie A season: he won back, as reported by WhoScored, 11 balls in the defensive third of the pitch, making it the highest number of recoveries in a single match for a player this season.
