Roma could unblock their market through two loan releases, necessary to be able to bring in new players. Belotti is one step away from Fiorentina, after the failed exchange with Ikoné, while Kumbulla is very close to Sassuolo. If the two exits materialize then the assault on Empoli’s Baldanzi, valued at no less than 15 million euros, would begin
TRANSFER MARKET, NEWS AND LIVE NEGOTIATIONS
We work intensely at home Roma in these last days of the market. From today Spanish Angelino is officially a Giallorossi player and reinforces Daniele De Rossi’s set of full-backs. However, the Giallorossi are also working on the exits. Two of the hottest names: Belotti and Kumbulla. For the attacker, who arrived in the summer of 2022 after being released from Turin, in the last few hours there has been contact from the Fiorentina, to which the player had been proposed for an exchange with Ikoné. That negotiation stopped immediately but now the Viola are finalizing Belotti’s arrival in Florence with an operation on loan until the end of the season: there is also the player’s approval for the transfer. In this first part of the season with Roma, Belotti made 14 appearances in Serie A, scoring 3 goals and also providing 2 assists. The negotiation was unblocked regardless of Nzola’s transfer
Kumbulla, Sassuolo in pole and Udinese poll
The future of Roma could be far from Rome Marash Kumbulla. In fact, there is interest in the Roma defender Sassuolo: a real and concrete attempt by the black-green club, which has identified the Albanian footballer as the ideal profile to strengthen the defensive department available to Dionisi. On Kumbulla it is also necessary to register the request for information from Udinese. The defender, born in 2000, has never been used by Roma this season also due to the knee injury that kept him in the box for several months (last presence dated 29 April 2023)
Rome, with the exits the assault on Baldanzi will begin
The two exits of Belotti and Kumbulla will then give Roma the opportunity to also be active on the entry front, with the great objective that corresponds to the name of Baldanzi. After the arrival of De Rossi and the move to a 433, in fact, it is precisely in that role that the Giallorossi are now looking for reinforcements, while they can do without a central defender and also a centre-forward, considering that Azmoun and Abraham are also in the squad , who could return to the field around March. Baldanzi, on the other hand, reflects exactly the perfect profile to alternate with Dybala, always conditioned by his physical problems, in the position of right winger who returns to the middle of the pitch to finish or make a play. Convincing Empoli, however, will not be easy: the Tuscans’ valuation of the player does not fall below 15 million euros, which is why a great effort will be needed for the Giallorossi. But first, as mentioned, the exits.
