Roma Appoints New Sporting Director Amidst Turmoil
1 Jun
Summary
- Tony D'Amico appointed as new sporting director.
- Roma pursues Mason Greenwood for up to €50 million.
- Club aims for offensive reinforcements after FFP obligations.
Roma has appointed Tony D'Amico as their new sporting director, following the departure of Frederic Massara. D'Amico's arrival comes after a period of internal disputes and follows his prior links to other clubs. The Giallorossi have already secured Donyell Malen and extended Mario Hermoso's contract.
Their summer transfer strategy is heavily focused on bolstering the squad's offensive capabilities, contingent on fulfilling Financial Fair Play requirements. Mason Greenwood is a prominent target, with Roma understanding that a transfer fee potentially reaching €50 million would be necessary to secure him from Olympique Marseille, where he has scored 48 goals and provided 17 assists in 81 games.
Other attacking targets include Antonio Nusa from RB Leipzig and Crysencio Summerville, though no concrete moves have been made for them yet. The club is also considering offers for Manu Koné, Evan N'Dicka, and Matias Soulé as part of their settlement agreement obligations, with a sale of Soulé to a Premier League side appearing increasingly likely. A new center-forward remains the priority over another central attacker.
