Roma have reached an agreement with Stuttgart over the transfer of winger Jamie Leweling, but the deal now hinges on the German international's response. According to reports from Fabrizio Romano and Matteo Moretto, the two clubs have already settled their terms after several hours of talks. Leweling has asked for time to consider his future and has not yet communicated his decision. Roma are awaiting his answer by this evening or, at the latest, by tomorrow morning.
Roma's pursuit of an attacking winger has shifted focus decisively toward Leweling, displacing Luiz Henrique from the club's priority list. The Brazilian, for whom Roma hold agreements with both Zenit and the player himself, has been frozen out as Roma direct their efforts elsewhere. Leweling's negotiation had stalled after Roma's initial proposal—a loan with an obligation to buy—was rejected by Stuttgart in recent days. The Giallorossi have now changed their approach, tabling a permanent transfer offer of €30 million plus €5 million in add-ons, with a contract through 2031 on the table for the player.
Leweling, however, retains other options. Premier League clubs including Everton and Liverpool are also tracking him, and a stay at Stuttgart remains a possibility he is considering. The 23-year-old's deliberation comes in the closing hours of the summer transfer window, with Roma pressing for a resolution as they seek to deliver an attacking reinforcement to manager Gian Piero Gasperini. The intensity of negotiations on the Roma–Stuttgart axis has escalated sharply over the past 24 hours, with both clubs attempting to bridge differences on the structure and financial terms of the operation.

Both clubs have settled their terms after intensive negotiations, and Roma are awaiting Leweling's response by this evening or tomorrow morning at the latest. The outlets differ slightly on the financial package: GialloRossi.net reports a permanent transfer worth €30 million plus €5 million in add-ons, while Forza Roma cites approximately €35 million overall. Both confirm a contract through 2031 has been offered to the 23-year-old.
