Inter target N'Dicka if Bastoni departs

Fabio Paratici, Fiorentina's sporting director, has indicated the club will not block Dodô's exit if the right offer arrives. Speaking to Sky Sport, Paratici acknowledged the player's ambitions while suggesting Fiorentina will evaluate what is best for both parties. Dodô is a target for AS Roma to strengthen their right flank, and his current contract with Fiorentina runs until 30 June 2027. Roma are actively pursuing reinforcements on the flanks under new head coach Gian Piero Gasperini. Wesley will remain on the left side, but the club seeks an established starter for the opposite flank. Dodô fits that profile and is unlikely to renew with Fiorentina, making a summer move plausible. However, Roma must complete player sales by the end of June to meet their settlement agreement obligations before formally pursuing new signings. Paratici stated: "He has legitimate ambitions. If there are requests? I won't go into specifics, but in any case, as I said, he has legitimate ambitions, just as Fiorentina does. We will evaluate what is best for both." No official offers have been tabled yet, though Roma's interest is clear as they reshape their squad for the new season.

Several Italian radio commentators debated Roma's transfer strategy and the pursuit of Mason Greenwood. Roberto Pruzzo, speaking on Radio Radio, offered a contrarian view on Greenwood's future, suggesting that Marseille should retain the forward rather than sell. Pruzzo noted: "According to me Marseille would do well to keep Greenwood. I do not rule out that Marseille, which will not play Champions League, could accept staying out of the cups for a year and not dismantle the squad, with the prospect of still being competitive, because the French league is made of teams that aim more at the transfer market in terms of sales. It is necessary to hope that the player has a say: if he decides to leave, then a solution is found." Matteo De Santis pointed out that both Roma and Marseille must sell players, but suggested Roma could leverage UEFA flexibility if they complete a big sale in early July. Meanwhile, Nando Orsi took a contrarian stance, arguing that Matías Soulé is a strong player suited to Gasperini's system and suggested spending the €50 million on Greenwood elsewhere. Orsi stated: "I would keep him [Soulé], and I would spend the 50 million of Greenwood elsewhere. Now Gasperini commands and he wants Greenwood, but these are the crazy Italian expenses where you insert a player at crazy expenses when you have at home a player that I don't say is equal but you have the certainty of knowing him." The discussion reflects ongoing debate within Roma's fanbase about the club's ambitious transfer plans under new head coach Gian Piero Gasperini.

Bryan Cristante appears set to extend his contract with AS Roma, keeping the midfielder at the club. However, the transfer market may yet bring unexpected developments in the coming weeks. Roma's midfield anchor looks positioned to continue his stay in the Giallorossi colours, though the club remains active in the market and could pursue further squad adjustments if opportunities arise.

Inter and Real Madrid have discussed Alessandro Bastoni during recent talks between the two clubs, with the Spanish giants continuing their pursuit of the Italian center-back. Real Madrid have already secured Ibrahima Konaté on a free transfer from Liverpool and renewed Antonio Rudiger's contract, but remain interested in adding a left-footed defensive specialist. Inter have placed a €70 million valuation on Bastoni, the same fee they requested from Barcelona in earlier negotiations that ultimately collapsed. Should Bastoni depart, Inter are considering Roma's Evan N'Dicka as a potential replacement. N'Dicka could leave Roma during the summer transfer window, particularly before June 30th, due to the club's financial requirements. Roma would likely use the income from such a sale to reinvest in a replacement defender and address other areas of their squad. However, Roma are expected to remove N'Dicka from the market after the June 30th deadline. The timeline for any Real Madrid move remains uncertain. The Spanish club have moved decisively to secure targets this summer when motivated, but the situation could also represent a negotiating tactic by Bastoni's representatives to secure an improved contract with Inter. For any deal involving N'Dicka to progress, events would need to move very quickly given Roma's anticipated deadline for retaining key assets.

Roma are willing to listen to offers for winger Matías Soulé, who has emerged as the club's most likely candidate for departure. The Argentine has recorded 12 goals and 13 assists in 81 appearances since joining from Juventus for €25 million, but his performances over two seasons have not reached the level required to make him untouchable. Soulé's agent, Martin Guastadisegno, recently visited Roma's Trigoria training center to assess the situation. While the player would prefer to remain in Rome, he would not resist a move if a suitable offer arrived. Soulé is being actively targeted by Aston Villa, Bournemouth, and Borussia Dortmund, with interest also emerging from Turkish clubs. Roma have valued him at €35–40 million, a figure that would generate approximately €20 million in profit. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini favors selling Soulé over alternatives such as Evan N'Dicka or Manu Koné. A sports hernia affected his performance late in the previous campaign. In parallel developments, Roma are progressing toward renewing Paulo Dybala's contract, with both parties close to agreement despite minor differences remaining, and the club is actively monitoring Mason Greenwood despite his significant asking price.

Ivory Coast's coach Faé has commented on an injury sustained by defender N'Dicka during the national team's participation in a football tournament. The coach provided information regarding when the player is expected to return to action. N'Dicka is a current AS Roma player, and any extended absence could impact the club's defensive options during the coming fixture period. Details regarding the specific nature of the injury and the exact recovery timeline remain unclear from the available information.
