AS Roma is poised to make its initial significant signings as the club begins its new era under the guidance of Gian Piero Gasperini. French-Moroccan midfielder Neil El Aynaoui, born in 2001, is set to be the first reinforcement for the Giallorossi. Hailing from Lens, the deal is valued at a fixed €23 million plus an additional €2 million in bonuses, following a successful agreement reached with the Ligue 1 club. El Aynaoui showcased his talent last season, impressively contributing with 8 goals and 1 assist across 26 appearances. Medical examinations and the official contract signing are anticipated shortly.
Concurrently, Roma has reportedly reached a full agreement with Brighton for the talented young striker Evan Ferguson. He is expected to join on a loan deal with an option to buy, set at a potential €40 million fee. While discussions remain challenging with Palmeiras regarding midfielder Rios, the Giallorossi management continues to explore other options in attack. An offer of €25 million has already been submitted to Flamengo for their promising young forward, Wesley, signaling a proactive approach to strengthening the squad across multiple positions.
