Roma ready to bid for Greenwood but will wait until after June 30

Inter's sporting director Piero Ausilio has publicly dismissed any interest in signing Niccolò Pisilli from AS Roma. Speaking at the official opening of the summer transfer market in Rimini, Ausilio stated: "Beyond the enormous respect I have for this boy, I can safely, without risk of being contradicted, say there is no interest. But for a logic of role, not because there isn't respect or consideration for this boy — he is one of the best young players we have in Italy and will certainly do very well — but let's say that in the coming days we are working on other things, not on this type of role." Pisilli, a 2004-born midfielder at Roma, had been linked with Inter as the transfer window opened. Ausilio's comments effectively end speculation about a potential move, emphasizing that Inter's priorities lie elsewhere. The director confirmed that Inter will sign two defenders in the current market, focusing their recruitment efforts on defensive reinforcements rather than midfield acquisitions. Pisilli expressed enthusiasm about Roma's participation in the Champions League under new head coach Gian Piero Gasperini, stating it represents a great honour and that he has long followed the coach's work.

Matías Soulé has turned down lucrative offers from three Saudi Pro League clubs—Al-Ahli, Al-Hilal, and newly promoted Al-Diriyah—despite receiving a combined proposal worth approximately €35 million plus annual wages around €10 million. The 18-year-old Argentine appears set to remain at Roma beyond the 30 June deadline, but the club continues to push for his departure to meet financial settlement agreement requirements. Roma faces potential UEFA sanctions in November 2027–28 if it fails to generate significant player sales by the deadline. Penalties could include a fine of €10–12 million and potential squad limitations. Soulé's contract includes clauses benefiting Juventus (10% of any future resale) and the player himself (4% of Roma's profit). Roma would accept €35 million plus performance bonuses to secure a capital gain and reinvest the funds, though discussions with UEFA about a financial correction plan remain possible if the deadline is missed. Separately, Roma will submit its first formal offer for Mason Greenwood to Olympique Marseille soon, with a formal proposal expected following the weekend. The club continues working to move out young players, with several linked to other Serie A sides.
