Houssem Aouar to replace Paulo Dybala in Sassuolo showdown

Roma will face Sassuolo on Sunday without their star attacker in Paulo Dybala.

The Argentine forward has been ruled out of action for around 10-14 days following a muscle injury suffered in yesterday’s training: this means he will miss Sunday’s fixture and the international engagements with his national team.

In the meantime, Daniele De Rossi prepares an alternative replacement in Roma’s line-up for tomorrow.

According to Sky Sport, it will be up to Houssem Aouar to step in and replace Dybala alongside Stephan El Shaarawy and Sardar Azmoun (Romelu Lukaku has been called up but remains questionable to start).
