AS Roma: Mora negotiations stall; alternative targets sought

Overview

AS Roma’s pursuit of Rodrigo Mora from FC Porto has reached a significant impasse. Roma previously proposed a €7 million loan with a €43 million purchase option tied to performance triggers, such as Champions League qualification. However, Porto’s leadership has rejected these terms, demanding immediate payment instead.

The deadlock is compounded by public friction regarding Mora’s status. His legal representative, Luis Miguel Henrique, claimed the player is unhappy and feels relegated to a “third-choice role.” Porto coach Francesco Farioli dismissed these claims as “unnecessary narratives,” asserting that the representative does not understand the internal hierarchy and that team priority precedes individual roles. Farioli noted that both Mora and another player, Gabri, are viewed as high-level alternatives for the same position. This follows a match against Rio Ave where Mora remained on the bench for the full 90 minutes.

Amidst the stalemate, Roma continues to explore alternatives, including Malick Fofana, Destiny Udogie, and Assane Diao, while the future of Matías Soulé remains uncertain due to interest from Galatasaray and Fiorentina.

On the pitch, Roma concluded pre-season preparations with a 2-2 draw against Borussia Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park. Paulo Dybala and Bryan Cristante provided an early lead, but Dortmund equalized through Julian Ryerson and Serhou Guirassy. The match served as a tactical dress rehearsal for manager Gian Piero Gasperini ahead of the Serie A opener against Fiorentina.

Off the pitch, the club recently appointed John Galantic as CEO and secured a multi-year partnership with Dsquared2, set to become the Official Fashion Partner in the 2026/27 season.
