Genoa Optimistic Over Baldanzi Buyout as Roma Pursues Sales Targets

Fenerbahce has intensified its bid to sign Mason Greenwood by holding a meeting with the English forward in England, according to reports from Turkish journalist Yagiz Sabuncuoglu. The Turkish club's executives attempted to reach an agreement with Greenwood during the encounter, with the goal of accelerating negotiations with Marseille before Roma can make a formal offer. Roma has not yet tabled a proposal for the 2001-born winger, but faces mounting competition as other clubs seek to hijack the deal. The transfer race for Greenwood is becoming increasingly complicated for the Giallorossi. Fenerbahce's aggressive approach has forced Roma to consider a counter-move in their efforts to convince Greenwood to join the club. Roma is expected to announce D'Amico soon, as part of broader summer recruitment plans. When asked about Greenwood, head coach Gian Piero Gasperini declined to discuss transfer matters. He said: "Greenwood? No, escono tanti nomi adesso. Parlo solo dei giocatori della Roma" ("No, many names are coming out now. I only speak about Roma's players").

AS Roma is tracking multiple attacking targets in the transfer market, including Brazilian winger Paixao alongside earlier reported interest in Greenwood. An announcement regarding D'Amico is expected imminently. Meanwhile, the club has officially confirmed the departure of player Saud, completing an outgoing transfer. Roma continues its active recruitment strategy as the window progresses, evaluating options to strengthen the squad's attacking depth.

AS Roma continues to monitor the market for attacking wingers, with Igor Paixao among the profiles under consideration. The club is maintaining an active interest in the Brazilian winger as it seeks to strengthen its offensive options. Details of Roma's approach, Marseille's involvement, and the likelihood of a move remain unclear from available information. Paixao is part of a broader recruitment strategy to add depth to the squad's attacking department.

AS Roma will not activate the buyout clause for young forward Lorenzo Venturino after just six months at the club, bringing his temporary spell to an end. Venturino arrived at Roma on loan but has not convinced the management to make the move permanent. Como are reportedly interested in securing the player, positioning themselves as a potential destination for the 20-year-old striker.

Roma midfielder Niccolò Pisilli has been selected for Italy's upcoming friendly matches in June. The call-up comes as Roma celebrates its recent qualification for the Champions League. Pisilli joins fellow player Venturino in the Italy squad for the international fixtures. The selection represents recognition of Pisilli's performances and continues a positive period for Roma, with the club now preparing for European football's top competition alongside managing international commitments for its players.

Italy interim coach Baldini has named a youthful squad for two friendly internationals against Luxembourg (3 June) and Greece (7 June), with an average age of just 20 years and 6 months. The squad prioritises emerging talent following Italy's World Cup qualification failure and the earlier defeat in Zenica. Two AS Roma players have been included: Niccolò Pisilli and Lorenzo Venturino, the only Giallorossi selected for the fixtures. The call-up underscores a new direction for the national team under Baldini's interim stewardship. The most experienced player in the squad is 27-year-old Gianluigi Donnarumma, currently at Manchester City. The wide pool of young talent includes players from major European clubs, with representation from Atalanta, Milan, Fiorentina, Borussia Dortmund, and Juventus among others. The selection reflects an attempt to rebuild squad depth and identify future internationals ahead of upcoming campaigns. Pisilli and Venturino's inclusion represents recognition of their development at Roma. The remainder of the squad spans multiple positions across goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, and forwards, with several players based abroad in Serie A and top European leagues.
