Ranieri calls up Saelemaekers for the first time ahead of Spurs showdown

Good news for Roma who should be shortly able to rely on Alexis Saelemaekers.

The Belgian winger has been officially called up by Claudio Ranieri for Thursday night’s Europa League showdown with Tottenham Hotspurs.

Saelemaekers has been out of action since Matchday 4 when he suffered a fractured ankle vs Genoa.

After making only two appearances for the Giallorossi, Saelemaekers is ready to contribute to the team within the coming weeks.
