Rudi Garcia expects response to Mohamed Salah injury

Roma head coach Rudi Garcia insists that the likes of Iago Falque and Juan Iturbe will step up in the absence of Mohamed Salah.

Roma head coach Rudi Garcia has insisted that other players will step up in the absence of the injured Mohamed Salah.

The Egyptian attacker has been influential to ensure that Roma are currently just a point behind top two Fiorentina and Inter Milan, but he is likely to be out of action for at least the next couple of weeks due to an ankle injury.

However, Garcia is confident that his squad is strong enough to cope without such a key player.

"Salah is getting there," he told reporters. "There will be a chance for the others. I'm confident, we have options.

"We're not short. [Iago] Falque is an excellent player, as is [Juan] Iturbe who has the attributes to replace Salah."

Roma visit Bologna on Saturday afternoon.
