Fiorentina’s Nico Gonzalez in doubt for Roma showdown, decision expected on eve

Following a nail-biting round of 16 Coppa Italia victory against Parma, won via penalties, Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Italiano has given his team a much-deserved day off. They are set to meet again tomorrow to resume training in preparation for Sunday’s away match at the Olimpico against Roma.

The Fiorentina manager will need to carefully assess the condition of Nico Gonzalez, who was not part of the squad for the last match. The Argentine striker, as Italiano himself has previously explained, is dealing with a muscular discomfort.

The goal is to have Gonzalez fit and ready for the key clash against the Giallorossi (Roma’s nickname), however, the final decision will not be made until Saturday, ahead of the team’s departure for the capital. This piece of information was reported by Ansa.
