Totti Misses Roma Training Again, Juventus Appearance Unlikely

Fans are likely to see Totti in the stands rather than on the pitch this weekend...

Francesco Totti shows his frustration after his Roma side are eliminated from the Champions League against Arsenal
Roma captain Francesco Totti has missed training for the second time this week, and he is now looking in further doubt for the clash against Juventus on Saturday.

The Giallorossi resumed preparations this morning at Trigoria, but Totti did not take part with the rest of the team on the pitch. The captain is still suffering from inflammation to his knee. He has not been able to shake off the problem, and it has hampered his progress as a result.

suggest the Italian will miss the clash against Juventus this weekend. The bad news doesn't end there for Roma though as Mirko Vucinic is also looking in doubt with injury. Marco Motta, Alberto Aquilani, Julio Baptista and Rodrigo Taddei were also missing. Their conditions will be analysed on a daily basis.

Simone Loria took a knock to his ankle, but he has reassured fans that all is well.

"My ankle? It's ok. Nothing serious to worry about," the stopper told Romanews.eu.

Christian Panucci took a knock to his left knee during training and was unable to continue. He is likely to have further examinations throughout the week as the injury curse continues to plague the Romans.
