Fatigue could see Roma's top striker Edin Dzeko get sidelined

SARAJEVO: Italian Serie A side Roma's coach Paulo Fonseca has said that he hopes to have Edin Dzeko available against Brescia on Saturday. "We will see about Dzeko. We can't forget that he played the last two games and there are few days to recover. I talked to him yesterday and he was a bit tired. I would like to speak to him again, to decide," said Fonseca on Friday as per Bosnian media, writes Xinhua news agency.

Dzeko, Bosnia and Herzegovina's and Roma's top striker, played 37 games this season registering 17 goals and 10 assists.
