Roma midfielder Koné proposed to Atlético Madrid; Spanish club uninterested

AS Roma has signalled its intention to close the first half of the transfer window without selling key players, according to reports emerging from the club's Trigoria base. The Friedkin Group is unwilling to dismantle the squad's core to satisfy UEFA financial requirements, and has instructed officials to reject offers deemed insufficient. The club will only consider departures if genuinely unmissable bids arrive; otherwise, no established players will be sold. Roma believes it can present a balanced budget to UEFA in June while retaining its main contingent. The club has already generated approximately 13 million euros in capital gains, reduced operational costs, and expects increased revenue from overseas broadcast rights. Additional financial relief may come from the situations surrounding players Bove and Calafiori. Officials, including D'Amico, have made clear that no player will depart at discount prices. Roma is prepared to accept potential sanctions—including a fine or restrictions on squad registration for European competitions in the following season—rather than compromise squad stability, viewing this as preferable to harsher UEFA penalties.

Juventus has initiated contact with the representatives of AS Roma goalkeeper Mile Svilar, signalling interest in acquiring the shot-stopper. The Serie A champions have identified Svilar as a target in the goalkeeper market. Roma's position on any potential departure remains unclear from available details. Svilar joined Roma and has established himself as a key player in the club's defence. Any move would represent a significant transfer involving one of Roma's core squad members.

Juventus has registered interest in AS Roma goalkeeper Mile Svilar as they seek to strengthen their defensive options. According to transfer specialist Matteo Moretto, Juventus has made contact with Svilar and his representatives to explore the conditions for a potential departure. However, Roma has made clear that the Belgian keeper is not for sale at any price below €50 million—a fee Juventus are reportedly unable to match at present. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini considers Svilar integral to Roma's plans and has advised the club to retain him. The Friedkin Group ownership has adopted a firm stance against parting with the goalkeeper. Moretto stated: "The Juventus is trying to understand the conditions for a possible exit of Svilar. But the giallorosso club would still want to keep him, also on the indication of Gasperini, who considers him unsellable." Roma's position is reinforced by Svilar's own public commitment; he has expressed through social media his love for the club and his desire to compete in the Champions League wearing Roma's colours. The situation remains fluid, with Roma reportedly set to complete another significant departure imminently, which could open other transfer scenarios. Nevertheless, club officials maintain that any sale of Svilar would require an offer significantly above market value—a threshold unlikely to be breached in the near term.
