Juventus rules itself out of Kessie race, citing high costs

Manchester United has abandoned its pursuit of Atalanta midfielder Ederson following doubts over the Brazilian's physical condition. Atalanta, however, remains confident the player has no fitness issues and is prepared to reintegrate him into the squad. With Ederson off the table, United is now actively exploring alternatives in midfield—and the search has turned toward Roma's Manu Koné. The French midfielder has attracted interest from the English club in recent days, particularly from media coverage in England. Koné's involvement with his national team at the World Cup could work in Roma's favour, potentially enabling the club to secure a higher transfer fee. The collapse of United's Ederson pursuit may now reignite the club's interest in Koné, opening a fresh pathway for the transfer.

Roma are pursuing Bruges striker Nicolò Tresoldi as they look to strengthen their attacking department. The 2004-born centre-forward, valued at approximately €30 million by the Belgian club, is viewed by Roma's management as the ideal profile to complement Donyell Malen in the forward line. The club's strategy has shifted: Roma plan to attempt closing the deal without waiting for Artem Dovbyk's departure first. However, convincing Bruges remains a significant obstacle. Alejandro Garnacho has been offered to Roma in recent weeks, but the club would only consider the move on a loan basis, whereas Chelsea continues to pursue an outright purchase. A potential Roma move for Garnacho could only materialise later in the transfer window if the operation's terms change. Separately, Roma's season-ticket campaign has made a strong start, with 18,000 renewals already signed in the first three days. The renewal phase for existing holders runs until 23 July, with the waiting-list phase opening from 27 July. Midfielder Bryan Cristante has spoken positively about working under Gian Piero Gasperini. In an interview with Sportweek, he praised the coach's attacking approach, saying: "You run a lot, but you enjoy yourself. You understand immediately what he wants from you." Cristante also reflected on the Derby della Capitale's significance: "When I arrived at Roma they told me it was the most important match. It goes beyond three points."

Alejandro Garnacho, Chelsea's Argentine winger, has been proposed to AS Roma as the club looks to strengthen its attacking options under head coach Gian Piero Gasperini. Roma's position on any deal is clear-cut: the club would only consider a loan arrangement at this stage of the transfer window. A permanent investment does not form part of Roma's current plans as the club carefully manages its financial resources. According to Fabrizio Romano, any concrete move would depend entirely on Chelsea's willingness to negotiate a loan formula. The differing positions on the structure of the deal currently represents the main obstacle to a potential approach. The operation could become realistic later in the summer transfer window should Chelsea soften its stance on a temporary arrangement. For now, Roma remains focused on evaluating loan opportunities to add depth to the forward line without committing significant capital. The class of 2004 winger's profile could attract stronger interest from the Giallorossi once both clubs align on the terms.
