Morto Livio Berruti dopo un periodo di malattia, il campione olimpico a Roma 1960 aveva 87 anni

Roma have returned home after concluding their British pre-season training camp and are pursuing two attacking targets: Rodrigo Mora from Porto and Endrick from Real Madrid. The club is attempting to secure a permanent transfer for the Portuguese forward born in 2007, while exploring the possibility of a loan deal for the Brazilian. Both signings represent potential reinforcements to Roma's forward line as the 2026–27 season approaches. Mora, a 2007 birth-year prospect from Porto, is being actively pursued on a permanent basis, while negotiations for Endrick centre on a temporary arrangement that would see the Real Madrid player join on loan. Francesco Petrachi has also been discussing Cacciamani, though specific details of those talks were not outlined in the latest update.

Gian Piero Gasperini has condemned the structure of the Italian transfer window, arguing that allowing the market to close after the league season has begun creates unnecessary chaos for all clubs. Speaking after Roma's friendly against Brighton, the Roma head coach said: "As always the market starts on 1 July and then everything is decided in the last 15 days of August. For everyone these are the wrong dates, because the squads are already in preparation for a month and the market is still up in the air for everyone." Daniele De Rossi, now managing Genoa, publicly backed Gasperini's position. De Rossi revealed that Norton Cuffy did not play in Genoa's friendly against Deportivo La Coruna due to market uncertainties, and used the occasion to criticise the calendar. He said: "It's a stupid thing, wrong, I don't understand who could like it, I don't understand who could agree with it. Meanwhile whoever wants to make a deal on 30 August will do it on 15 August, it's something that devastates everyone because if you play on 16 against Ascoli and on 15 they sell you a player you'll have some difficulty. This is a bureaucratic abomination that I will never be able to understand." Both coaches highlighted how the compressed August window forces transfers to occur once pre-season training is underway, destabilising squad preparation across Serie A.

Roma's third kit for the 2026–27 season has appeared in online sales at overseas retailers ahead of its official launch on 9 September. Manufactured by Adidas, the strip features a black base with white trim and the club's former crest positioned centrally on the chest, directly below the technical sponsor logo. The sleeves are decorated with thin yellow and red stripes, while the back of the collar displays the words 'Lotta con il cuore' (Fight with heart) alongside the ASR monogram. The Friedkin Group approved a return to the Roma crest for the 2026–27 season, and this third kit marks a notable design choice with the historic badge. The kit's premature appearance comes as Roma prepare for the start of their campaign, with the opening fixture set for Monday, 24 August at the Stadio Olimpico against Fiorentina. The unofficial preview has already circulated widely on TikTok and X, giving supporters an early glimpse of the design well before Adidas formally unveil it on 9 September.
