Royal Antwerp table loan offer with purchase option for Salah-Eddine

Anass Salah-Eddine remains one of Roma's most active outgoing transfer targets this summer. The Moroccan winger is currently outside Gian Piero Gasperini's project at the club, despite interest from multiple suitors. Royal Antwerp have submitted an official offer for Salah-Eddine on a loan deal with a right of redemption, with the two clubs in dialogue. The player is considering his next destination. Salah-Eddine has already rejected approaches from the PSV and Olympiacos, though the Greek club may return to the table. His decision could partly hinge on Olympiacos's progress in UEFA Champions League qualification; they face NEC in a third-round preliminary tie. Betis are also reported to be monitoring his availability. Salah-Eddine returns from the World Cup but finds himself without a clear role under Gasperini's tactical plans, making a temporary move abroad an attractive option to regain playing time.

Roma have targeted Feyenoord's Dutch winger Givairo Read as a primary objective to strengthen their wing options. Read has already agreed to join the Giallorossi, and Rotterdam continue negotiations with Roma over his transfer. Read will start in a friendly on 2 August against Atalanta, kicking off at 15:00 at the De Kuip in Rotterdam. Feyenoord confirmed the fixture on their official social channels. The match will be broadcast exclusively on DAZN, accessible via the platform's app on any device (TV, PC, smartphone, tablet) or through the official website with a subscription.

Konstantinos Koulierakis joined Roma's pre-season training camp in Wales on 2 August, a day after his signing was officially announced. The defender arrived at the Vale Resort to meet Gian Piero Gasperini and his teammates, including Bryan Cristante, Gianluca Mancini, Paulo Dybala, and Donyell Malen. The moment was captured on camera as Koulierakis embraced the head coach and squad members. Some Roma supporters at the resort approached the new arrival to request photographs and autographs. Gasperini now has an additional defender available as Roma continues its pre-season preparations. The timing of Koulierakis's arrival reflects the club's push to strengthen the backline during the current transfer window. His integration into the group comes as Roma prepares for the 2026-27 season.

Artem Dovbyk has departed AS Roma to join Bologna on a new challenge after a difficult season marked by injury and surgery. The Ukrainian striker said yes immediately when Bologna manager Domenico Tedesco asked if he wanted to play for the club. "They explained the project and the ambition of this club, which wants to achieve much more this season. I am here to give my best," Dovbyk said. Dovbyk, who arrived at Roma from Girona, has now moved on as the Giallorossi pursue other targets, including Castro. The 28-year-old striker told Bologna's official channels that he was convinced by sporting director and manager Tedesco. He praised the squad's unity and individual quality. "It is a very friendly group, it seems like a family. Everyone fights for each other and there are many players of great individual quality," he said. "I know this club has helped many strikers grow in the past and I want to try to give everything for this team, score and help it." On his personal goals, Dovbyk expressed his hunger to play and regain peak condition. "I have hunger and I want to play. I want to rediscover my ideal condition and help the collective. I know the history of Ukrainian players in Italy and I know I am the first to wear Bologna's shirt. I am honoured and I want to achieve great goals here," he said.

Roma have agreed to sell midfielder Luigi Cherubini to Las Palmas on a permanent deal after the two clubs held talks. Cherubini, born in 2004, has been working under head coach Gian Piero Gasperini during the early weeks of pre-season at Trigoria and is now departing the Giallorossi. The transfer represents another outgoing move for Roma following Artem Dovbyk's recent switch to Bologna. Cherubini's departure marks a continuation of the club's activity in the transfer market as they reshape the squad under new management.

Roma have confirmed their first signing of the summer transfer window. Santiago Castro has joined from Bologna as a Roma player and will wear the number 9 shirt, vacated by Artem Dovbyk. The Ukrainian striker completes the reverse move to Bologna, where he will attempt a fresh start under Tedesco. The swap represents Roma's opening business of the transfer market, with the club's sporting director D'Amico continuing recruitment work. Castro takes up a key offensive role in Gian Piero Gasperini's squad, while Dovbyk seeks to rediscover his form in Serie A after his time in the Italian capital.
