Report: Roma Face Nervous Wait Over Mirko Vucinic Injury
The Montenegrin picked up a thigh problem in Florence and will go in for scans today.
By Vince Masiello
The Giallorossi defeated Fiorentina 1-0 at the Franchi thanks to a late effort from the 26-year-old, but he took a knock to his right thigh which is still causing him pain in the rectus femoris muscle.
The ex-Lecce man sat out yesterday’s training session at Trigoria and will undergo fresh medical tests at the Gemelli Hospital today to have a clearer picture of the damage he sustained.
Should Vucinic be ruled out for the Rosanero’s visit, Claudio Ranieri might again be forced to speed up captain Francesco Totti’s comeback from injury.
‘Er Pupone’ played from the start in Tuscany but came off at half time as he is still short of match-fitness following a lengthy lay-off.
