AS Roma said it is working tirelessly through every appropriate channel to ensure that the match can be played on Sunday. In a statement published by the club, Roma said the rights of every citizen, supporter and Giallorossi season ticket holder must be protected.
The club said it is fully aware of the sacrifice, passion and personal commitment involved in following the team, adding that the stadium is an integral part of the lives of some supporters. That language points to uncertainty around whether the match will go ahead as planned at the Italian Open, even though the statement did not spell out the reason for the disruption or identify any formal decision.
Roma also said it has always recognized in its fans a unique heritage of belonging, responsibility and love for these colors, and said the most complex and difficult moments can deepen the sense of belonging that unites the team and its supporters. The club said it will continue to defend the passion of its supporters with respect and determination whatever the final decision may be.
The statement was published on the AS Roma website, which carries copyright information for Soccer S.r.l. from 2018 to 2026. It lands while the Italian Open is already producing notable results on court, including Daniel Altmaier’s loss to Alexander Zverev at the start of the tournament, Rauch’s interruption of Darderi in the Rome derby setting, and Elena Rybakina’s straight-sets win over Alex Eala.
For now, the club’s message is less about certainty than leverage: Roma is pressing every available channel to keep Sunday’s match on the schedule while making clear that, if it is not, the people who follow the team should not be the ones left carrying the cost.
