Roma Resume Training Five Days Before Fiorentina Match

Paulo Dybala's future at AS Roma continues to be unclear, with Boca Juniors interested in signing the Argentine forward. Recent reports suggested a preliminary contract agreement between Dybala and Boca had been reached, but transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has stated that no such deal currently exists between the player and the Argentine club. Boca Juniors certainly view Dybala as a major target, though discussions remain internal to the club at present. Dybala has not yet approved any negotiations for a transfer away from Roma. The 21-shirt player, who returned to full availability under Gasperini following an injury sustained in late January, is prioritising finishing the current season with the Giallorossi in the best possible manner. His focus remains on Roma's campaign rather than exploring potential moves elsewhere. The Argentine will make a final decision on his future only after the season concludes. Until then, uncertainty will likely persist around whether Dybala remains at the Stadio Olimpico or pursues a move to South America.

The CIES (International Centre for Sports Studies) has assessed Wesley as an important asset not only for AS Roma but for Serie A as a whole. The evaluation underscores the Brazilian defender's contribution to the club and the wider Italian league. Wesley has established himself as a key player in Roma's defence under Gasperini's management. The CIES rating reflects his consistency and value within the squad, positioning him among the league's notable defensive talents.

Roma returned to training at Trigoria following a two-day rest to prepare for Monday's Serie A match against Fiorentina at the Olimpico (kick-off 20:45). Midfielder Koné returned to group training and will be available for the fixture, a boost for coach Gasperini. However, Pellegrini and Dovbyk underwent differentiated training. The match will be officiated by Zufferli, whose previous encounter with Roma saw Celik sent off in a Cagliari fixture. Off the pitch, Roma continues to manage significant changes. The search for a new sporting director intensifies, with D'Amico reported as the primary candidate to replace Massara. Alternative names mentioned include Manna and Sogliano. On the transfer front, several movements are being tracked: Bournemouth (reportedly linked with Paulo Pinto) are pursuing Ndicka, while the Brandt transfer interest has cooled. Should Manu depart, the club's midfield target is understood to be Ismael. Separately, Paulo Dybala is reportedly moving toward a transfer to Boca Juniors. Additionally, Dan Friedkin has approved an approach for Alajbegovic.
