Roma coach Ivan Juric has confirmed that. Veteran German defender Mats Hummels’ absence from the Giallorossi squad was due to purely technical football reasons.

Hummels signed for Roma on a free transfer in early September after his contract with Borussia Dortmund expired. But has yet to make an appearance. Despite returning from international duty in October.สมัคร UFABET

The 35-year-old defender was named on the bench for the 1-0 home defeat to Inter Milan in Serie A. And was expected to make his debut in Thursday’s Europa League clash with Dynamo Kyiv. But sat out the rest of the game.

Ahead of Sunday’s game against Fiorentina, Hummels was asked why he has yet to make his debut. And Juric replied: “I choose based on what I see in training, who gives me the most confidence to play.”

“Age and history don’t matter. It’s a technical decision.”

“Hermoso also hasn’t had many chances. Despite his experience at Atletico Madrid. N’Dicka could become a top player on the right side of a back three.”

“He has everything in place to get better. He’s an intelligent guy and is willing to learn. I’m confident in his growth. He had a decent game today, misplacing some passes, which isn’t normal for him.”
