Overview
- Roma have reportedly raised their proposal to €30m plus €5m in add-ons for Jamie Leweling and have arranged private travel to bring the player to Rome, according to Italian outlets.
- Sources say Leweling initially rejected Roma’s first approach but is now open to the move after the improved offer; no transfer has been confirmed.
- Negotiations between Roma and VfB Stuttgart remain ongoing on deadline day, with the two clubs yet to announce an agreement.
- Earlier the same day, Roma are reported to have refused a €60m bid from Chelsea for midfielder Koné, signaling the club’s decision to retain a core player.
- If completed, the Leweling pursuit would show Roma prioritizing a late-window wing signing while actively controlling major outgoing transfers, and the next developments to watch are any official club statements and the closing of the transfer window.
