Arsenal and Liverpool eye Roma defender Emanuele Lulli
Several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur, are reportedly monitoring AS Roma defender Emanuele Lulli. The 19-year-old academy graduate has drawn significant interest from English scouts following his breakthrough into the Roma first team this season.
Lulli, a six-foot defender capable of playing as a conventional right-back or a wing-back, has impressed recruitment departments with his ability to contribute both defensively and offensively. His rapid development has also provided tactical flexibility for Roma manager Gian Piero Gasperini, allowing teammate Wesley, a Brazilian defender, to be deployed on both flanks.
While Premier League scouts were initially focused on monitoring Wesley, Lulli’s recent performances have led scouts to recommend him as a serious potential target for their respective clubs. Other major English sides, including Manchester City and Manchester United, are also reportedly aware of the teenager’s rise.
