AS Roma Champions League preparations

AS Roma players are preparing for the upcoming season and the club's return to the Champions League.

Midfielder Niccolò Piselli expressed his commitment to the club and his goal of contributing to their Champions League campaign, noting that he is currently recovering from an injury. Meanwhile, full-back Wesley discussed the high level of competition in the tournament and his evolving tactical role under coach Gasperini, emphasizing a more offensive approach in his position.

Wesley has since elaborated on his tactical transition to a left-sided role to accommodate the arrival of Nahuel Molina. He noted that Gasperini expects him to be more offensive, frequently attacking the penalty area to finish plays rather than just providing crosses. Describing the Champions League as a “sort of World Cup for clubs,” Wesley also addressed recent pre-season friendly losses, suggesting it is preferable for mistakes to occur now rather than during official matches.

Regarding transfer activity, Roma is reportedly interested in a loan move for Real Madrid’s young talent Endrick to bolster their attack. While Wesley expressed enthusiasm for the potential arrival of the Brazilian, reports indicate that Endrick may prefer to remain at Real Madrid to compete for a spot, despite his entourage seeing value in a loan for increased playing time.
