Chelsea open to loaning out Jamie Gittens as Roma reportedly prepare fresh move

Chelsea are reportedly open to a loan move for Gittens, while Roma keep their distance from the deal as they look for attacking reinforcements. Roma are searching for at least one addition in attack ahead of the winter transfer window, to strengthen the squad available to Gian Piero Gasperini. Roma's first priority remains Endrick, a player the coach holds in high regard. The club's management continues to target him as the main option for the forward line. The Italian report frames Roma as watching developments from the sidelines rather than moving quickly for Gittens.

Roma's management are following the situation of two unhappy forwards who appeal to Gian Piero Gasperini, with Endrick reportedly wanting to leave Real Madrid and Lookman looking for more game time. The Giallorossi are reportedly searching for their next striker in Madrid. The article's headline frames Roma's interest as a move for a future player at Real Madrid, linking the club's search to the coach's preferences. No further details on fees or timing are available from the report.

Arsenal have entered the race for Endrick, joining Milan and Sporting in pursuit of the Brazilian forward, according to English outlet TeamTalk. The Premier League champions have returned to negotiations for the Real Madrid striker in recent weeks, and Mikel Arteta has never given up on the player and is pushing for a fresh attempt in January. Unlike other clubs, such as Roma, Arsenal do not intend to complete a straight loan deal. They are exploring the option of including a technical counterpart, Zubimendi, and securing an option or obligation to buy in order to keep Endrick at the club for the long term. The appeal of the Premier League could change the 2006-born Brazilian's mind, but he still holds Roma and Gasperini in high regard after facing the Giallorossi at the Olimpico. He has also appreciated their attacking style of football, in which he believes he would fit in perfectly and be able to express his qualities. The report suggests Endrick's admiration for Roma and head coach Gian Piero Gasperini remains strong, even as English interest grows. Arsenal's pursuit is built around a structured deal rather than a short-term loan, which sets their approach apart from the Giallorossi's interest.
