Ballarin joins Roma Primavera from Venezia

Roma are weighing a move for Frosinone attacker Giorgi Kvernadze, who has scored three goals already this season and caught the attention of bigger clubs. The Georgia international is valued at over €20 million after joining Frosinone for around €1 million, and is believed to fit Gian Piero Gasperini's system. Roma conducted exploratory research on the player and see him as both a capable acquisition and one offering room for growth. The club pursued several attacking signings in the summer but none materialised. Kvernadze is expected to be a target again in the summer window, as Roma look to strengthen their attacking options. Beyond his ability on the pitch, the player is viewed as a sustainable target with development potential. Hull City have also enquired about Kvernadze, and Roma are hoping his value does not escalate further. The club is evaluating the possibility of executing a favourable January move for the forward.

Roma's Serie A fixture at Bologna on 4 December could be played without Roma supporters in attendance. The match clashes with a Virtus Bologna basketball fixture against Partizan Belgrade in the EuroLeague on the same evening, and authorities are concerned about public order given the rivalry between the two clubs' fanbases. Officials are considering a ban on Roma fans traveling to the Stadio Dall'Ara. In the transfer market, Roma are preparing concrete moves for the January window. Giorgi Kvernadze, a Georgian winger, fits the club's criteria for young signings and has emerged as a potential target. Roma's management would be willing to move toward the €25 million asking price set by Frosinone to accelerate negotiations, though Hull City and Borussia Dortmund have also registered interest in the player. Manu Koné continued his strong form with France in a 1–0 Nations League victory over Turkey, deployed as a central midfielder in a 4-3-3 formation—a different role from his usual position. Zinedine Zidane praised the Roma midfielder after the match, saying: "Manu is not used to playing in that position, I wanted to see this side of him and he was very good in terms of balance." Two analysts also discussed Roma midfielder Nico Pisilli, with one noting his five appearances have included good performances but a normal pattern of variation, while the other highlighted errors in his latest outing despite generally strong displays.

Manu Koné has emerged as one of Roma's standout performers this season after the club resisted multiple Premier League approaches during the summer transfer window. Chelsea made concrete advances with a €60 million offer, while Atlético Madrid had tabled €45 million, but Roma chose to retain the midfielder. That decision has vindicated itself: Koné scored a vital brace against Inter in a 2-2 draw and has impressed consistently under head coach Gian Piero Gasperini, who has benefited from keeping him away from the London giants. His stock has risen sharply on the international stage as well. New France boss Zinedine Zidane has begun deploying Koné in a deeper midfield role, and the 24-year-old is thriving in that position—mirroring the creative freedom he enjoys at club level when given licence to advance. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that his market value has now climbed closer to €100 million, a significant uplift from the €60 million Chelsea offered just months earlier. Roma are using comparable transfer valuations as a benchmark. The fees Tottenham paid for Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali are cited as markers for the club's assessment of Koné's standing in the current market. The Giallorossi believe that if other clubs can command those sums, Koné represents a substantial asset worthy of a premium valuation.
