AS Roma has received disappointing news as medical examinations have confirmed that Paulo Dybala has sustained a hamstring injury. According to Italian media reports, this setback is expected to keep the Argentine striker out of action for a minimum of one month.

Dybala’s participation in Sunday’s match against Cagliari, which Roma won 1-0, was cut short after just 12 minutes on the field. The player had been introduced as a substitute in the second half, as he was not fully fit at the start of the game.

While initial concerns about a potential knee injury were allayed by manager Claudio Ranieri, the results of Monday’s medical tests revealed a lesion in Dybala’s hamstring. This injury is likely to rule him out of several important fixtures, including a crucial home game against Juventus scheduled for April 6.

The severity of the injury was apparent even during the match, as Dybala was seen visibly emotional on the Roma bench, struggling to contain his disappointment.

This season, Dybala has been a key contributor for Roma, scoring eight goals and providing four assists across 36 appearances in all competitions. His absence will undoubtedly be felt by the team as they navigate through important matches in the coming weeks.
