Roma hit by Candela injury

ROMA'S Vincent Candela could miss the start of the season after picking up an injury in training.

The France international limped out of a training session and tests revealed a tear in his calf muscle.

Although the length of time Candela will require to recuperate is unclear, it is already being suggested that he will miss the start of the season.

Serie A should kick off on August 31, and the Giallorossi will be disappointed at losing one of their most consistent performers.

Roma play Udinese on the opening day of the season, and only a win will buoy the fans after a disappointing last campaign.
