Once upon a time Roma needed to sell, especially by June 30th, hunting for capital gains necessary to make ends meet. With the budget to be sorted out, also for reasons related to financial fair play and the settlement agreement signed with UEFA in 2022. (…) Well, that time has passed, because the Rome today he thinks differently. And, above all, she no longer has the urge to first sell and then buy. In fact, for now the opposite has happened, with the redemption of Angelino (5 million to Leipzig) and the purchase of the young man Sangare (around 1.2 million euros. In short, at a time when i Friedkin are about to formalize the purchase of Everton, (which will become part of the Texans’ galaxy together with Roma and Cannes), the improvement in the Giallorossi’s accounts arrived in the last season allows Roma to look to the future with a different meaning. The financial result presents almost a +25% as a net result. This is thanks to the containment of operating costs (-25%) and the growth in operating revenues (approximately +20%). Which are affected by many items: from retail to e-commerce, from stadium revenues to new partnerships (in particular the two-year 25 million agreement with Riyadh Season). (…) All this today allows Roma to be able to look at the market with a different eye. With the desire to spend on quality young people who can create heritage and value. So, on the one hand it’s okay to negotiate Hummels (which will only come with the sale of Smalling, to keep the experience level of the defense unchanged) on the other hand the eye tends towards those 20, 21, 22 year old players who can color the future. One is Guela Doue, Rennes’ right back, who Roma have been hot on for a while. But then also Fresneda, Tiago Santos, Vanderson, Riquelme, Diakité, Kalimuendo, Banza, Soulé and Omorodion. (…)
