Overview
- Rodrigo Mora landed in Rome on Tuesday and finished medical checks ahead of signing a long‑term contract that binds him to Roma through 2031.
- Roma paid a reported €25 million to Porto and agreed that Porto keeps 50% of any future resale with options for Roma to buy that share back by paying additional sums.
- Coach Gian Piero Gasperini has asked for more attackers after Mora and the club is actively pursuing Malick Fofana from Lyon and a left‑side option such as Luis Henrique or Ivan Udogie.
- Negotiations for Fofana are linked to Lyon’s Champions League playoff status and Roma is exploring loan‑with‑conditional‑obligation or staged payment formulas to manage cash flow.
- The club expects further squad moves, including potential sales like Soulé or Vaz, as part of a plan to balance the roster and meet the Friedkin ownership’s financial limits while preparing for Champions League competition.
