AS Roma squad rebuilding and early season performance

Overview

AS Roma’s summer rebuilding under sporting director Tony D’Amico and manager Gian Piero Gasperini has transitioned into a dominant start to the 2026/27 season. Following a heavy spending period that resulted in a negative transfer balance of 105.5 million euros, the club maintains a positive long-term financial outlook.

On the pitch, the squad has secured nine points from their first three matches, with victories against Fiorentina, Lecce, and Atalanta. The team’s performance is characterized by high possession, aggressive pressing, and clinical finishing, recording 10 goals in their opening matches—a rate surpassed only by Barcelona in Europe. Key contributors include Paulo Dybala, Soulé, Santiago Castro, Manu Koné, and Nahuel Molina. Notably, the club successfully resisted interest from Chelsea regarding midfielder Manu Koné.

As the club prepares for its return to the Champions League after a seven-year absence, the squad is set to face Fenerbahce in Istanbul. For this fixture, Roma will feature a charitable logo on their jerseys instead of their main sponsor, Eurobet, due to Turkish betting regulations. The team will also navigate the absence of Guendouzi, who is currently serving a suspension.

To mark the new campaign, the club unveiled its third kit: a dark grey and silver Adidas jersey featuring the slogan ‘Lotta con il cuore’ (Fight with the heart), inspired by the Roman virtue of Fides.
