An experienced mentor noted that Artem had a slight problem with his knee, but now it’s gone
Head coach Roma Claudio Ranieri intends to rely on the attack on the Ukrainian Artem Dovbikfor whom the team must create more comfortable conditions on the field.
“Dovbik had these minor problems in Ukraine, a knee problem that he no longer has. We know the maintenance he needs and we don’t help him. I talked to the team, showed them the video and we have to help him because he is our scorer. We shouldn’t put pressure on him, but we should give him the passes that a striker like him needs.”
Let us remind you that Roma recently changed their head coach for the second time in less than a full first round. The legendary Ranieri took over on November 14 – he will lead the team until the end of the season, after which he will take a position in the club’s management and become an adviser to the owner on all sporting issues.
Already under the 73-year-old Allenator, the Giallorossi lost minimally to Napoli (0:1) in the championship, after which they managed to salvage a draw in the Europa League match at Tottenham (2:2). The Romans cannot win five matches in a row in all tournaments. In Serie A the team takes a dismal 15th place, in the Europa League – 21st.
Dovbik, who moved to Roma this summer from Girona as the top scorer of the Spanish Championship, managed to score six goals and one assist in 17 matches. His goal drought has already lasted four matches.
Roma will play its next match at home against one of the leaders of the championship – Atalanta. The match will take place tomorrow, December 2, starting at 21:45 Kyiv time.
