Manu Koné remains untouchable in Gasperini's Roma project

Manu Koné has become an essential figure in Gian Piero Gasperini’s technical project at Roma. The French midfielder, who earns approximately 3 million euros net per season, is considered untouchable by the coaching staff.

Roma management has previously resisted interest from major clubs, including Inter Milan and Chelsea, to maintain the player's stability. The club's investment in Koné began in the summer of 2024 through a deal with Borussia Mönchengladbach. His contract is set to run until June 2029, and while no renewal talks have started, his central role in both league and Champions League matches makes him a key asset for the club's future.
