Antonio Nusa transfer saga and Roma squad developments

Overview

In August 2026, Roma’s pursuit of offensive reinforcements and management of a turbulent pre-season continued. While the club remains interested in Malick Fofana of Olympique Lyonnais, concerns persist regarding his €40 million to €45 million valuation and his recovery from a significant ankle injury. Similarly, interest in Antonio Nusa has been complicated by the player's desire to remain at RB Leipzig and the club's €60 million asking price. Other potential attacking moves include a possible loan for PSG's Ibrahim Mbaye and interest in Torino's Alessio Cacciamani. Roma is also monitoring Real Madrid's Endrick, though competition from RB Leipzig and interest from Fenerbahce complicate this pursuit. Expanding their search for attacking talent, Roma has begun exploring the possibility of signing Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli. The club has initiated discussions with Roc Nation Sports, the agency representing the Brazilian, to assess transfer feasibility. However, the move faces financial hurdles, as Arsenal reportedly values the player at approximately €50 million and Martinelli earns roughly €11 million gross per season. Roma is attempting to negotiate lower wage requirements to facilitate the deal. On the transfer market, Roma is in advanced negotiations with FC Porto for Rodrigo Mora, presenting an offer structure that could total €50 million via a loan with an option to buy. The club is also finalizing the arrival of defender Nahuel Molina from Atlético Madrid in a deal valued at €13 million plus bonuses. On the pitch, pre-season preparations have been difficult, highlighted by a 3-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion. Manager Gian Piero Gasperini has criticized the squad's lack of concentration and defensive cohesion, publicly demanding reinforcements to address deficiencies in the midfield and attack. Despite these challenges, the club has secured Lorenzo Pellegrini with a contract extension through June 2027.
