Briefs-Roma's Perrotta a doubt for Arsenal Champions League game

Feb 27 (Reuters) - Sports news in brief from around the world:

Soccer - AS Roma midfielder Simone Perrotta is likely to miss the return leg of their last 16 Champions League tie against Arsenal after suffering a hip injury in training.

The Serie A club said on its website (www.asroma.it) the Italy player's recovery time will be assessed in the next few days but local media reported he risks missing up to two months.

Roma host Arsenal on March 11 after losing the first leg in 1-0 in London on Tuesday.

Soccer - Monaco chairman Jerome de Bontin is leaving the Ligue 1 club for "family reasons", the principality team said in a statement.

De Bontin, who arrived at Monaco in April 2008, will announce his replacement at next month's board meeting.
