Angeliño departs Roma and returns to Deportivo La Coruña

Antonio Nusa has played down weeks of transfer rumours linking him to Roma, insisting he has never asked to leave RB Leipzig. The Norwegian striker, who Roma have been tracking as a priority summer target, returned from World Cup holiday and spoke to Sky Sport DE to clarify his position. "I have never expressed the will to leave Leipzig, there are rumours and there always will be. The media can write what they want. I simply relaxed a bit on holiday and now I am here at Leipzig — those are the facts," Nusa said. Roma have maintained a strong interest in the 22-year-old as they seek to strengthen their attacking options, but the cost of any deal remains prohibitively high for the Giallorossi. The club are now studying alternatives, with Endrick and Fofana also under consideration as potential targets to improve their squad depth and quality.

Roma director Gianluca D'Amico has secured Nahuel Molina from Atlético Madrid, with head coach Gian Piero Gasperini confident the Argentine winger is perfectly suited to his 3-4-2-1 formation. Initial concerns about how Molina would adapt to playing as a right-sided defender rather than his familiar centre-back role at Atlético Madrid, where he won the World Cup with Argentina in Qatar, have been allayed by Gasperini's assessment of his tactical profile. Molina's experience and reliability are expected to address Roma's defensive flanks, particularly when deployed as a wing-back rather than in a traditional full-back capacity. D'Amico arranged the signing during a recent trip to Madrid and is now pushing forward with a second wide player acquisition. Roma are in advanced talks to sign Cacciamani from Torino for less than €15 million. The club aims to secure two external defenders at a combined cost well below the price of a single marquee signing, as Roma reshape their squad options on both flanks for the new season.

Angeliño has left AS Roma after two and a half years with the club, joining Deportivo La Coruña on loan with a right of purchase. The Spanish full-back made 80 appearances and scored 4 goals during his time at the Giallorossi. Angeliño's departure marks the end of a spell that began in May 2024. The move to the Spanish side brings to a close a significant chapter in the left-back's Roma career, during which he established himself as a regular in the squad and became a fan favourite at the Stadio Olimpico. On social media, Angeliño addressed Roma supporters: "Grazie, Roma. È stato un orgoglio indossare questa maglia e difendere i colori giallorossi. Fin dal primo giorno mi sono sentito parte di una grande e accogliente famiglia e giocare ogni partita all'Olimpico è un privilegio che ricorderò sempre con affetto. Lasciare Roma non è mai facile e una parte di me resterà sempre qui, tra momenti indimenticabili, grandi compagni, tanti insegnamenti e l'onore di aver rappresentato un club con una storia immensa. Grazie alla società, allo staff tecnico, a tutte le persone che lavorano ogni giorno per questo club. Ma soprattutto, grazie a voi tifosi per avermi fatto sempre sentire uno di voi. La vostra presenza e il vostro supporto hanno reso quest'esperienza unica e il ricordo del calore dell'Olimpico resterà indelebile. Vi auguro il meglio per il futuro! Ovunque tu sarai, mai sola mai."

Angeliño has left AS Roma and returned to Deportivo La Coruña after a difficult season at the Stadio Olimpico. The Spanish left-back, who had joined Roma in May 2024 after an initial loan spell, departs following what the club described as a troubled campaign. In a farewell posted on Instagram, Angeliño expressed his gratitude to Roma and its supporters. "It was an honour to wear this shirt and defend the Giallorossi colours," he wrote. "From the first day I felt part of a great and welcoming family, and playing every match at the Olimpico is a privilege I will always remember with affection. Leaving Roma is never easy and a part of me will always remain here, among unforgettable moments, great teammates, many lessons and the honour of representing a club with an immense history. Thank you to the board, the coaching staff and all the people who work every day for this club. But above all, thank you to you fans for making me feel one of you. Your presence and support made this experience unique and the memory of the warmth of the Olimpico will remain indelible. I wish you the best for the future." The departure marks the end of Angeliño's tenure in the Italian capital, where he featured prominently under the Roma management structure.

Roma have completed the signing of Nahuel Molina from Atlético Madrid for €13 million plus €4 million in bonuses, the club's third summer acquisition. The Argentine right-back has signed a contract until 2030 on wages of €2.7 million per season. The move follows the collapse of efforts to recruit Read from Feyenoord and delivers Gasperini his preferred option on the right flank. The club continues to pursue reinforcements across multiple fronts. On the left wing, Roma are maintaining contact with Torino over defender Cacciamani, a 2007-born prospect valued between €15 and €20 million who is willing to join. The primary offensive target remains Antonio Nusa of Leipzig, though his €55 million asking price and competition from Tottenham have slowed talks. Lyon's Malick Fofana is also being monitored. Internally, Lorenzo Pellegrini's contract renewal is in progress. Outbound moves are also underway: Kumbulla will join Rayo Vallecano on loan, while Angeliño returns to Spain with Deportivo La Coruña on a loan deal including a €2.5 million obligation to buy. Matías Soulé, valued at €35 million, is exploring options in Spain following cooled interest from AC Milan.
