Atlético Madrid submit bid for Greenwood as Roma face race against time

Source: Forza Roma

Atlético Madrid have entered the competition for Mason Greenwood by submitting an opening offer to Marseille for the winger, intensifying pressure on Roma to accelerate their pursuit. The Spanish club's move, while falling short of Marseille's €50 million asking price, has temporarily moved them ahead of Roma in the French club's eyes. Roma's director of sport D'Amico has intensified contact with Marseille in recent days, but the €40 million plus €2 million in bonuses Roma had budgeted may no longer be sufficient.

Head coach Gasperini has been guaranteed a prominent transfer market by the Friedkin Group to challenge for a title after last season's third-place finish. Roma retain optimism from their long-standing agreement with Greenwood over wages of €4.5 million net plus bonuses. However, the signal from France is unmistakable: Roma must increase their offer soon. To match Atlético's challenge, Roma would need to invest substantially more, with a total package spanning transfer fee and gross wages expected to exceed €80 million across a five-year contract.

Such a commitment requires approval from the Friedkin Group and their financial officer Morrow. The owners have repeatedly assured Gasperini during recent calls that they will back him in the market, but Roma must now convert promises into action to secure Greenwood before the Spanish club or other suitors strengthen their position.

Tresoldi waiting on Roma move, deal independent of Dovbyk exit

Nicolò Tresoldi wants Roma and is currently awaiting the club's next move. The Club Brugge striker has been identified by the giallorossi as a potential deputy to Donyell Malen and is convinced by Gian Piero Gasperini's project, having already spoken with Niccolò Pisilli. Roma's pursuit of Tresoldi operates independently of any potential departure by Artem Dovbyk, who remains without a new club at present. The giallorossi could proceed with the signing even without selling the Ukrainian forward, though Tresoldi's valuation is high, ranging between €25–30 million. Despite considerable interest from other clubs, Tresoldi is focused solely on Roma's movements in the transfer market. An acceleration in negotiations is expected in the coming week.

Dybala Returns to Roma as Contract Renewal Nears Completion

Paulo Dybala has returned to the Italian capital ahead of Roma's pre-season retreat, which begins in two days. The Argentine forward stopped short of confirming his contract renewal publicly, telling Il Romanista: "Rennoval? We cannot confirm it yet." However, the deal is all but complete, with only his signature remaining before official confirmation arrives in the coming days. Dybala will begin summer preparation at Trigoria after spending time in Argentina with his wife Oriana and daughter Gia. The 30-year-old's future at Roma is not in doubt despite his cautious remarks. He left a message for the giallorossi supporters ahead of his return to training, saying: "I will greet them when we see each other." His renewal comes as Matías Soulé, a fellow Roma attacking player, recently raised questions about his own future with the club.
