Marten de Roon arrives in Rome for Roma medical

Robinio Vaz's move to Hull City has stalled after head coach Gian Piero Gasperini halted the transfer, according to reports. The French forward had come close to joining the newly promoted Premier League club on a loan with a purchase option, and the agreement between Roma and Hull City was complete. However, Gasperini has blocked the departure pending the arrival of a new attacking left winger. Today, 30 August, a call is scheduled between Vaz and Hull City to obtain the final answer from the 2007-born forward. The agreement between the two clubs is not the issue; Roma is awaiting Vaz's definitive approval to proceed with the move.

Marten de Roon will land at Fiumicino today at 12:10 to complete his move to Roma from Atalanta in a deal worth 1 million euro total. Simultaneously, Neil El Aynaoui departs on a loan to RB Leipzig with an option to buy for a combined package of 29–30 million euro. The arrivals and departures mark frenetic activity in the final days before the summer transfer window closes at 20:00 on 1 September, with Roma also preparing to confirm defender Nicolás Balerdi as their fifth signing of the window. Bareldi landed at Ciampino yesterday afternoon and completed his medical before signing a contract through 2031. His official announcement is expected today. The Argentine defender is Roma's latest reinforcement ahead of the away fixture at Lecce. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini has blocked the loan departure of forward Robinio Vaz to Hull City pending the arrival of a left winger, though a call between Vaz and the English club is scheduled for today to finalise terms.

Leonardo Balerdi landed at Ciampino on 29 August and became Roma's fifth summer signing and fifth Argentine in the squad—part of a three-strong Argentine contingent alongside Santiago Castro and Nahuel Molina who have all arrived this summer. The centre-back will undergo medical tests today before being announced, completing a significantly reinforced defence. Sporting director D'Amico is pressing ahead with negotiations on multiple fronts to strengthen the squad further within 72 hours, with Roma facing Lecce tomorrow. The priority remains an attacking winger. Chelsea's Gittens is the preferred target, with Roma applying pressure to secure a loan move from the English club. Simultaneously, negotiations with Zenit have opened for Luiz Henrique, a left-footed Brazilian winger who plays predominantly on the right. The departures being considered include Robinio Vaz, who will likely move to Hull City once the attacking reinforcement is completed, along with Neil El Aynaoui and Matías Soulé, who have attracted interest—chiefly from the Premier League—though no concrete bids have yet arrived. A Soulé exit could open the door for a left-winger addition. The midfield wing options are expected to remain unchanged.
