Roma coach Di Francesco \'in no rush\' to assess where additions needed

Published on: 30 July 2017

Roma coach Eusebio Di Francesco says they're still considering his squad's make up.

Di Francesco expects more signings to be made.

He said: “The transfer market closes on August 31, so how we can we give a verdict now? Many teams have strengthened, like Milan and Inter, while Napoli maintained their identity.

“We changed, introducing some interesting young and not so young players. Juve start the campaign as favourites, but we must try to close the gap.

“Daniele De Rossi is an exemplary captain in all respects, when he plays and when he doesn't. He's a reference point for the squad, both on and off the field, and has the characteristics for that role.

“I am here to evaluate the players in the squad and I am in no rush. Gerson is working hard and trying to do those things that aren't necessarily his strengths. I'm very happy with him so far, but that doesn't mean it is a final verdict and the evaluations will continue.

“Monchi also said the priority is to get another wide player, then we'll evaluate getting another midfielder. It's a competitive squad and we continue evaluating."
