Roma faces UEFA fine and squad limits unless €50m in sales materialise by tomorrow

Source: Forza Roma

Roma must generate significant player sales by tomorrow evening to comply with a settlement agreement signed with UEFA in 2022. The club is pushing Matías Soulé to accept a move to Saudi Arabia, with Al-Diriyah—newly promoted to the Saudi Pro League—offering €35 million plus wages of approximately €10 million per season. Soulé remains unconvinced, hoping instead for interest from Juventus or opportunities in the Premier League or Bundesliga.

Without meeting the €50 million-plus target in player sales, Roma faces UEFA sanctions in November for the 2027–28 season. The Friedkin Group is working to avoid penalties but the situation is precarious. The club is also pursuing sales of players including Salah-Eddine, Mannini, Cherubini, and Ziolkowski to bridge the gap.

If Roma fails to stay within the financial parameters, UEFA will impose a fine of €10–12 million—the figure dependent on the final extent of the shortfall—and severely restrict the squad size. The club will be permitted to register a maximum of 22 players instead of the usual 25 for European and domestic competitions.

Roma submit opening bid for Garnacho as push for Summerville continues

Roma have tabled their first offer to Chelsea for Alejandro Garnacho as they look to strengthen Gasperini's squad for the Champions League. The proposal consists of a loan with a 5 million euro fee plus 35 million euros in a buyout clause that would become mandatory under certain conditions. Garnacho is not the only target on Roma's radar. The club continues to pursue Summerville from West Ham after the Dutch winger's move to Manchester United fell through, with the player being offered to Roma once again. Arsenal and other top clubs are also tracking Tzolis from Club Brugge, though Roma remain interested in the Belgian club's player. Roma are additionally working on a deal for Diego Moreira, with an offer reported to be close to 30–35 million euros plus a percentage of future sale revenue.
