Artem Dovbyk is a doubt for Sunday’s Serie A game against Inter due to a knee issue that prevented him from training with the rest of the team yesterday.

Sky Sport Italia claims Ukraine international Dovbyk has returned from the international break with pain in his knee.

Therefore, the ex-Girona striker only underwent treatment on Wednesday and didn’t train with the rest of the team at Trigoria.

Dovbyk played both games for Ukraine during the October break, and according to the report, he started feeling pain during the first match against Georgia on Friday 11.

He still played the following one against Czechia on Monday 14, scoring from the spot before being subbed off at minute 80.

Sky Sport claims Roma’s doctors will treat Dovbyk over the next few days.

Today, Thursday, October 17, he’ll take a test on the pitch, but even if the outcome is positive, doctors will avoid work overload until the next game against Inter.

Dovbyk, a new Roma signing, is the best Giallorossi scorer this season, with four goals in nine appearances.
