Roma to appoint Tony D'Amico as sporting director to drive transfer profit and meet UEFA rules

Source: Roma News

Roma are set to formalize the appointment of Tony D'Amico as sporting director after his official release on 10 June, with the 57-year-old taking up his post on 1 July. D'Amico was recommended by head coach Gian Piero Gasperini and has been tasked with transforming the club's transfer market into a source of profit to stabilize finances and comply with UEFA restrictions.

D'Amico arrives with a reputation built on generating significant sales value. During his time at Verona, he orchestrated record profits including 26.5 million euros for Kumbulla and 16.5 million for Amrabat. At Atalanta, he oversaw major player valuations including deals involving Retegui, Ruggeri, and Hojlund. The Friedkin Group's ownership views his arrival as a strategic signal: Roma must balance financial recovery without sacrificing competitive strength. Until his official start, D'Amico will work alongside Jason Morrow, a trusted Friedkin adviser with deep knowledge of Roma's financial mechanisms, to prepare the club for the 30 June deadline tied to their Settlement Agreement with UEFA.

Tresoldi waiting on Roma move, deal independent of Dovbyk exit

Nicolò Tresoldi wants Roma and is currently awaiting the club's next move. The Club Brugge striker has been identified by the giallorossi as a potential deputy to Donyell Malen and is convinced by Gian Piero Gasperini's project, having already spoken with Niccolò Pisilli. Roma's pursuit of Tresoldi operates independently of any potential departure by Artem Dovbyk, who remains without a new club at present. The giallorossi could proceed with the signing even without selling the Ukrainian forward, though Tresoldi's valuation is high, ranging between €25–30 million. Despite considerable interest from other clubs, Tresoldi is focused solely on Roma's movements in the transfer market. An acceleration in negotiations is expected in the coming week.

Dybala Returns to Roma as Contract Renewal Nears Completion

Paulo Dybala has returned to the Italian capital ahead of Roma's pre-season retreat, which begins in two days. The Argentine forward stopped short of confirming his contract renewal publicly, telling Il Romanista: "Rennoval? We cannot confirm it yet." However, the deal is all but complete, with only his signature remaining before official confirmation arrives in the coming days. Dybala will begin summer preparation at Trigoria after spending time in Argentina with his wife Oriana and daughter Gia. The 30-year-old's future at Roma is not in doubt despite his cautious remarks. He left a message for the giallorossi supporters ahead of his return to training, saying: "I will greet them when we see each other." His renewal comes as Matías Soulé, a fellow Roma attacking player, recently raised questions about his own future with the club.
