Gervinho reportedly cancels his return flight from the Ivory Coast after a family bereavement, and may not be back for Roma's next game.

The Giallorosso player was expected in the capital today at noon after his triumphant Africa Cup of Nations campaign, with hopes running high that he might help the Lupi out of their current crisis.

But reports of a family bereavement by the Corriere dello Sport indicate that the player has had to cancel his return flight.

The Giallorosso player was expected in the capital today at noon after his triumphant Africa Cup of Nations campaign, with hopes running high that he might help the Lupi out of their current crisis.

But reports of a family bereavement by the Corriere dello Sport indicate that the player has had to cancel his return flight.

It is suggested that the player may not be back until tomorrow evening at the earliest, potentially jeopardising his presence in Sunday’s League match at home to Parma.

The publication also reports that new signing Seydou Doumbia is currently in Moscow, pending the release of his residence permit.

The fellow Ivorian should be in Rome this evening as planned, provided everything goes well with the Russian bureaucracy.
