Roma Transfer Window: Soulé Likely to Depart as Gasperini Targets Greenwood

Arsenal has made a serious move for Roma midfielder Manu Koné, reportedly reaching an economic agreement with the French midfielder's representatives. Unlike Atlético Madrid, who made an earlier offer of around €45 million that Koné rejected, Arsenal conducted preliminary negotiations with the player's team before moving forward. The Gunners now need to agree terms with Roma, who are understood to be seeking no less than €50 million to allow the midfielder's departure. Koné is considered a central part of head coach Gasperini's technical project at Roma. However, the club could be open to selling if the right offer arrives, particularly before the June 30 deadline linked to Roma's UEFA Settlement Agreement. Resolving Koné's sale would help address the club's plusvalenze (capital gains) requirements. After the World Cup, the midfielder is expected to be considered non-transferable unless an irresistible offer emerges. Matías Soulé remains another key name on Roma's potential departures list, with Borussia Dortmund studying that possibility.

AS Roma are reportedly tracking Crysencio Summerville following his goal in a World Cup opener against Japan. The winger has attracted attention after his recent performance on the international stage. Details remain unclear regarding the specifics of Roma's interest, the asking price, or the likelihood of the deal progressing. Summerville's profile has risen significantly, which may complicate any potential negotiation for the club.

AS Roma made an initial inquiry for Dutch winger Crysencio Summerville but the transfer appears highly unlikely to progress. Roma conducted exploratory talks with West Ham to assess the feasibility of a deal, but the path forward is extremely complicated. Manchester United is applying strong pressure on the player and has moved concretely in recent days, making Roma's pursuit increasingly difficult. The primary obstacle is financial. West Ham values Summerville at approximately €50 million despite their recent relegation—a sum Roma considers too high and is willing to spend only for Mason Greenwood. Summerville's market value may increase further following an impressive World Cup performance, where he scored on his debut against Japan and was among the Netherlands' standout performers. Beyond the transfer fee, the player is seeking to triple his wages from the current €2.5 million annually to around €6 million, adding another layer of complexity. Roma has evaluated the operation's margins but faces considerable difficulty pursuing the deal at this stage. The club's primary focus remains on Mason Greenwood, with whom wage agreement has reportedly already been reached. Roma's attempts to explore other options reflect their pursuit of attacking reinforcements, but the financial and competitive pressures from Manchester United make Summerville an unrealistic target under current circumstances.
