Friedkin Backs Gasperini, Moves to Add January Attacking Reinforcement

His Rome stop featured direct oversight at Trigoria, with planning framed by UEFA financial controls.

Overview

  • At the ECA/EFC assembly in Rome, Dan Friedkin praised Roma’s start and called Gian Piero Gasperini “fantastic” and fully aligned with the club’s approach.
  • Friedkin visited Trigoria, watched part of training, and held in-person meetings with Gasperini and sporting director Ricky Massara.
  • Corriere dello Sport reports he authorized at least one attacking signing for the January window to boost goal output while staying within Financial Fair Play limits.
  • The owner scheduled institutional talks in the capital, including a meeting with mayor Roberto Gualtieri, and he voiced full support for UEFA initiatives such as international matches.
  • Roma advanced off-field priorities as well, reviewing commercial plans led by Michael Gandler—including a new shirt sponsor search—and receiving updates on the Pietralata stadium project.
