Gasperini pushes for Scamacca as Roma open pursuit of Atalanta striker

Roma have set a deadline of Monday or Tuesday to resolve their pursuit of Summerville, aiming to reach a definitive answer on whether the move can proceed. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini's influence has been instrumental, and the player has signalled his willingness to accept Roma's financial offer. However, a gap persists between the clubs: Roma are proposing 44–45 million euros with bonuses (40 million euros as a fixed base), while West Ham are demanding 50 million euros, with 50 million euros as the fixed base. Payment structure will also prove crucial to negotiations. According to Matteo Moretto, the player has not only expressed availability to Roma but has moved closer to their economic terms. Despite good alignment between Roma and Summerville, the clubs have yet to reach agreement. Roma have instructed their negotiating team to determine by midweek whether to raise their offer further or abandon the pursuit. The timeline reflects the club's desire to avoid prolonging discussions indefinitely.

Roma are pushing hard to sign Janis Summerville, with the player's agents having contacted Tony D'Amico to try to close the deal. Summerville has agreed to reduce his wage demands, and Roma's offer of 4 million euros plus bonuses is expected to satisfy him. The club continues to explore other attacking options, with Tresoldi positioned as a deputy to Malen rather than as a primary striker target, though transfer fee figures remain fluid internally. Lorenzo Pellegrini's future hinges on head coach Gian Piero Gasperini's assessment, according to radio analysis. Gasperini wanted to retain all three senior midfielders, but Pellegrini risks following the same trajectory as Zeki Çelik if the club waits until contract expiry to negotiate a renewal. The midfielder is a professional committed to Roma, yet he has the right to explore other opportunities as his contract runs down. A recent photograph posted by Pellegrini suggested he was at the airport exploring options elsewhere. Radio commentators questioned the logic of investing 30 million euros in a deputy to Malen, noting that at 21 years old, Tresoldi remains unproven. With the transfer window open and Pellegrini able to negotiate with other clubs from 19 July onwards, the dynamics around his future remain fluid and could materialise in unexpected directions.

Lorenzo Pellegrini's contract renewal with Roma is nearing completion after the club secured extensions for Gianluca Mancini, Paulo Dybala and Bryan Cristante. The midfielder, who posted on social media showing his return to Rome in recent hours, has become the focus of renewed fan backing as negotiations progress. A banner has been hung outside the Fulvio Bernardini training ground at Trigoria expressing supporter sentiment toward the number 7. The message read: "Making a mistake can happen, repeating it means carelessness. Let's hold tight to Lorenzo." The display reflects fan concerns about retaining key players, following Zeki Çelik's departure to Juventus. Roma's management, led by D'Amico, continues working to deliver the renewals head coach Gian Piero Gasperini requires for the squad. The banner represents a section of the fanbase attempting to push the club toward finalising Pellegrini's terms and avoiding another high-profile exit. The class of 1996 midfielder remains the last major renewal pending among the squad's senior figures.

Roma are working simultaneously on two alternative attacking targets for the left flank and could make a final decision imminently. Gasperini and the sporting director D'Amico are actively pursuing both Nusa and Summerville, with the Norwegian reportedly the profile that better fits the coach's overall vision and long-term ideas. For Nusa, discussions with both his club and representatives have progressed and a decisive move to resolve final details could arrive today. For West Ham's Summerville, the financial gap has narrowed on both player and club sides. Roma will not exceed the salary ceiling it has set for wages—nothing that surpasses what the squad that brought Roma back to European ambition earns—with a possible agreement on 4 or 4.5 million euros annually and approximately 45 million to the London club to reach the level of the player's release clause, which can be activated by midnight today. Talks continue but Roma have not yet entered a decisive phase, though time is pressing given Summerville's admirers in the Premier League. Summerville has a friend at Roma in Donyell Malen. Meanwhile, Chelsea talks over Garnacho have been put on hold; Roma want a loan deal while the Blues prefer a permanent transfer or early monetisation guarantee. Separately, Koné and Soulé remain possible sale candidates to balance the financial fair play requirements, though no formal offers have yet arrived at the training ground.

AS Roma are pursuing Nicolò Tresoldi as an attacking reinforcement to partner Donyell Malen, with the Bruges forward having already signalled his willingness to join the Giallorossi. The Italian-German striker, born in 2004, has given Roma an important green light regarding a transfer to the capital, marking a significant step forward in the club's transfer strategy. However, the next move rests with Bruges, who hold Tresoldi's registration. While the player's availability is encouraging, it is not sufficient to complete the deal. Bruges must still communicate their valuation of the player and clarify their intentions regarding Tresoldi's future. Early in the week, the situation surrounding the forward should become clearer as the Belgian club sets out its position on both the fee and willingness to sell.

AS Roma asked its squad members to reveal which team they will support in tonight's World Cup final between Spain and Argentina, kicking off at 21:00 in New York. The club's social media campaign featured responses from Bryan Cristante, Jan Ziółkowski, Matías Soulé, Paulo Dybala, Niccolò Pisilli, Mile Svilar, and Gianluca Mancini among others. Mancini, the club's number 23, backed his former teammate Leandro Paredes with the message: "Vamos Leandro!" The Argentina contingent within Roma's squad showed their colours during the exercise, with both Dybala and Soulé participating in the video responses. The engagement reflects the global reach of Roma's playing staff, with strong connections to both European and South American football. The campaign concluded with Argentina ultimately prevailing among the respondents, though the article emphasises that the pitch will ultimately decide the true winner of the match.

Roma concluded their first pre-season friendly with a commanding 6–0 victory over the Primavera side. Matías Soulé, Bryan Cristante, Artem Dovbyk and Paulo Dybala were among the scorers, with Dovbyk and Dybala each netting twice. The result provided a positive opening statement as Roma prepare for the campaign ahead. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini granted his squad a rest day following the dominant display. Training resumes on Tuesday at 18:00 when the team will step up their physical and tactical work. The progressive increase in intensity is designed to build match fitness ahead of further pre-season fixtures and the official start of the season. Gasperini and his coaching staff are satisfied with the early indicators but emphasise that preparation is in its infancy.

Roma played their opening pre-season friendly at Trigoria under Gasperini, welcoming back Paulo Dybala and Wesley following recent absences. Dybala was formally a free agent until days ago, while Wesley returned from injury that caused him to miss the World Cup. Robinio Vaz remained unavailable through injury, and Zeki Çelik travelled to Turin, leaving Gasperini with a limited squad for the session. The main concern came when Mario Hermoso, the Spanish defender, left the pitch with ice applied to his right leg just below the knee late in the friendly. The issue appeared to stem from a knock, though Roma will monitor his condition closely over the coming hours. With few outfield players fit and available, Gasperini will be hoping the injury proves minor.
