AS Roma stalls on signings while new sporting director and €50 m settlement deadline loom

AS Roma is facing a tight financial deadline, needing to generate €50 million in capital gains by 30 June 2024 to meet its UEFA settlement agreement. The club is contemplating extending the agreement by a year, potentially until 30 June 2027, to ease the pressure.

The appointment of a new sporting director, Tony D’Amico, remains pending, and owners Ryan Friedkin and agent Carlos Novel have been in recent talks about future transfers. Without a finalized director and with the settlement deadline looming, the club has limited ability to complete player sales or purchases, leaving the team’s competitive prospects uncertain.
