The joy of Renato Sanches’ return lasted less than a week. Or at least this is the risk that Roma and José Mourinho are running. The nightmare materialized in the 28th minute of the first half of Sheriff-Roma, the first day of the Europa League group stage, when the Portuguese left the pitch with his head down and returned directly to the changing rooms after being replaced by Paredes.

After the intervention of the medical staff, requested by the midfielder, Sanches headed towards the changing rooms. The problem once again appears to be of a muscular nature, despite reports from the Giallorossi club that the former PSG player was debilitated due to a mild fever attack. The next few hours will be decisive to ascertain the extent of the problem.

For Sanches it would be the second muscle injury after the injury during training which forced him to be out for almost a month. A real joke for Mourinho who had found him just last Sunday in the match against Empoli, when the Portuguese had also scored his first goal for the Giallorossi. It is no coincidence that tonight the Special One, immediately after number 20 left the field, left the stands to run to the locker rooms and check on his player’s condition.
