Tresoldi agrees to Roma move as club negotiates fee with Bruges

Roma have identified Nicolò Tresoldi as a potential signing to strengthen their attacking options. The 20-year-old Italian-German forward, currently at Bruges, has agreed in principle to join the Giallorossi. Tresoldi, born in Cagliari but developed in Germany, represents a target identified by head coach Gian Piero Gasperini as a backup to Donyell Malen. Roma are prioritising a swift conclusion to negotiations with the Belgian club, looking to move ahead of rival suitors regardless of Artem Dovbyk's status at the club, with Genoa continuing to monitor the Ukrainian striker. However, the Bruges board are reluctant to negotiate, viewing Tresoldi as a valuable asset and unwilling to offer discounts. Roma's objective is to complete the deal on the basis of 25 million euros. The club are currently engaged in talks with Bruges in an attempt to lower their financial demands. The transfer could precede other offensive targets Gasperini has requested, including Alejandro Garnacho at Chelsea and Habib Moreira at Strasbourg, both of whom Roma are actively studying.

Lorenzo Pellegrini will miss Roma's official training camp opening at Trigoria tomorrow, though negotiations over his contract renewal have moved closer to completion in recent days. The midfielder and the club are increasingly aligned on extending their partnership, with concrete progress reported in talks. Pellegrini's entourage is reaching a verbal agreement with Roma, though a formal deal has not yet been announced. Pellegrini's absence from tomorrow's session is due to two factors: the contractual situation remains awaiting formal finalisation, and an injury sustained late last season requires careful management of his return. Meanwhile, contract situations for Paulo Dybala and Zeki Çelik are already advancing towards resolution.

Roma are pursuing Diego Moreira, a 21-year-old Belgian winger from Strasbourg, as head coach Gian Piero Gasperini seeks to bolster the flanks. Strasbourg are demanding €40 million for the Liège-born player, while Roma have offered up to €35 million plus bonuses and a sell-on percentage. The club's new sporting director D'Amico previously attempted to sign Moreira for Atalanta last summer without success and is keen to complete the deal in the capital. Gasperini has approved the potential acquisition and views Moreira as a tactical fit alongside Wesley, the Brazilian winger already on Roma's roster. Both players can operate across either flank, though Moreira has demonstrated particular versatility this season, playing as an external midfielder in a 3-4-2-1 formation and as a left winger in a 4-2-3-1 setup. At Strasbourg, Moreira earns €800,000 annually and could treble his salary at Roma. The statistical profiles are strikingly similar: Moreira has completed 10.4 kilometres per match compared to Wesley's 9.8 kilometres, and both average 23 sprints per game. However, Moreira boasts a superior dribbling success rate of 42 per cent versus Wesley's 23 per cent, while Wesley edges him marginally in top speed (36.4 km/h to 34.7 km/h). This season Moreira has contributed 4 goals and 6 assists in Ligue 1, whilst Wesley has scored 5 Serie A goals without providing an assist.

Roma are targeting Chelsea winger Alejandro Garnacho as one of their primary transfer priorities, alongside Diego Moreira. The 22-year-old Argentine is frozen out at Chelsea and the London club are actively seeking his departure, but only on a permanent deal for a fee between 40–50 million euros — a figure that includes a 10 per cent sell-on clause owed to Manchester United. Roma's sporting director D'Amico initially favoured a loan with option to buy, but the fee presents a significant obstacle. To circumvent the challenge, the club plan to structure the move similarly to their recent acquisition of Donyell Malen: inserting performance-based conditions that would trigger an obligation to buy. These could include goals scored or Roma's qualification for the Champions League. The approach proved successful with Malen's arrival weeks earlier. Roma face competition from English, Spanish, and Arab clubs for Garnacho's signature. The striker remains one of the hottest names in the current transfer market and has generated considerable excitement among the Giallorossi fanbase, both for his reputation and the attacking role he fills.

Roma's summer transfer strategy is being shaped by the tension between head coach Gian Piero Gasperini's technical ambitions and the club's commitment to financial discipline. Director Tony D'Amico is navigating this balance, evaluating each move carefully to avoid repeating past budget mismanagement. Diego Moreira is central to Roma's plans, with Gasperini keen on the midfielder's tactical versatility to bolster the flanks alongside Wesley. However, Strasbourg's asking price is deemed too high, and if negotiations don't yield flexibility, Roma may pursue less expensive targets. Elsewhere, Alejandro Garnacho remains under monitoring despite Chelsea's economic demands appearing beyond reach for Roma's proposed loan-with-option-to-buy formula. Nicolò Tresoldi is a concrete attacking target, with Roma attempting to lower Club Brugge's valuation to pair him with Donyell Malen. On the contract front, renewals for Paulo Dybala and Zeki Çelik are settled. Lorenzo Pellegrini's extension talks are progressing, though both parties must bridge a modest wage gap while Pellegrini recovers fully from recent injury before resuming full training.
