Friedkin Group unlikely to sell Svilar or Koné, Roma radio analysts suggest
Italian radio commentators have weighed in on Roma's summer transfer strategy following reports of Juventus interest in goalkeeper Mile Svilar. Francesco Balzani reported that contact between the clubs has occurred, with concrete developments overnight, but stressed that Svilar is not for sale and Roma has not set a price. Balzani stated: "The club has not decided not to sell him, but not to undersell him." He added that head coach Gasperini wishes to retain Svilar, and noted that the Friedkin Group does not want to sell either Svilar or Koné. Balzani also expressed expectations that Roma would present an offer for Greenwood on 1 July. The commentary reflects broader concerns about Roma's financial compliance. Piero Torri raised questions about whether Roma respected settlement agreement obligations, though he suggested the ownership may have secured protections in discussions with UEFA leadership. Roberto Pruzzo cautioned against overspending on Greenwood at 55 million euros, advocating instead for multiple backup options. Nando Orsi suggested Roma should prefer paying fines rather than selling key players, and argued that young forward Matías Soulé should remain at the club to develop under Gasperini, proposing instead that a defender might be sacrificed.
