Roma extends Sustainability Social Camp programme for 80 children from disadvantaged areas through July 10

FIFA has handed down disciplinary sanctions against players involved in a post-match altercation following the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina, won by Spain 1–0 with a goal from Ferran Torres in the second half of extra time. Two Roma players are affected: Nahuel Molina received a 7-match ban and a €77,000 fine, while Leandro Paredes was suspended for 10 matches with the same financial penalty. Thiago Almada and Roberto Ayala also faced sanctions, while Spain's Gavi was punished. Roma face no disruption to their squad. The bans apply exclusively to international matches, as the sanctions are tied to competitive fixtures for the national teams. Molina and Paredes will be able to continue playing regularly for the club without restriction.

FIFA has handed down disciplinary sanctions for the altercation that erupted after the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina, won 1–0 by Spain more than a month ago. Roma defender Molina has been suspended for seven matches and fined $90,000, matching the ban imposed on Almada. Former Roma midfielder Paredes faces a heavier penalty: ten matches out and an identical $90,000 fine. The Argentine Football Federation was also sanctioned, receiving a $321,000 penalty. Molina will miss Argentina's fixtures during the September international break, which coach Gian Piero Gasperini views as beneficial timing — the Roma player will be available during the club's three-week break that follows. Paredes, who left Roma in the past, carries the longest individual suspension from the incident.

José Mourinho has spoken fondly of AS Roma once again, reaffirming his emotional connection to the club despite his return to Real Madrid after thirteen years away. The former Roma manager, who spent two and a half years in the capital, reflected on his time apart from the Bernabéu and his affection for clubs where he has worked. When asked directly about his feelings for Roma, Mourinho did not shy away. "If you ask me if I feel something for Roma, Inter, Chelsea… yes, I feel something," he said. "I always want them to do well." He distinguished his attachment to Roma and other previous clubs from his bond with Benfica, describing the Portuguese club as having "something more" than the others. Mourinho also addressed his thirteen-year absence from Madrid, clarifying that he does not dwell on the past or feel nostalgia. He departed Portugal twenty years ago and has only returned for a few months in the year prior. He insisted that Real Madrid's subsequent titles belonged to Carlo Ancelotti, Zinedine Zidane, the players, and the organisation rather than himself, despite receiving calls from the club's president after each trophy.
