Enzo Le Fée and Alexis Saelemaekers are unavailable for Roma as Ivan Juric confirms his first squad list for a Serie A match against Udinese.

Owners and club directors will experience a toxic atmosphere as Roma fans are furious about De Rossi’s sacking earlier this week.

Official: Juric names Roma squad list for first time after replacing De Rossi

New coach Juric has announced Roma’s squad list for the first time, confirming the absences of midfielders Le Fée and Saelemaekers.

The Belgian winger underwent ankle surgery earlier this week and is expected to remain out of action for two months.

Juric is expected to start Paulo Dybala and Artem Dovbyk in attack, leaving Matias Soulé on the bench.

Lorenzo Pellegrini and Nicolò Pisilli fight for a starting spot, while Bryan Cristante and Manu Koné will likely get the nod in the middle of the park.

Roma have earned just four points in the opening four games of the season.

Juric took charge of the team hours after De Rossi’s sacking on Wednesday. The ex-Torino coach has signed a short-term contract until June 2025.
