Rossie: Gasperini explicitly asked Roma to sign a winger, Echeviri refused to loan Girona

12:07pm, 4 August 2025Football

According to "Roman Sports", Roma's new coach Gasperini has clearly required the club to sign a main-level winger. Manchester City's Echeviri refused to loan to Girona, which was regarded as a positive signal of signings by Roma.

"Royalty" pointed out that Gasperini once again reiterated to sports director Masala that when he decided to bid farewell to Atlanta and embrace Rome, his boss Friedkin made a promise to introduce at least 4 to 5 main-level new players to achieve a real tactical transformation. At present, Rome still lacks crucial recruits on the wing, allowing 3-4-2-1 to take off.

Currently, Roma's signings are just supplements, and Gasperini makes it clear that the only winger position cannot be retreated. Roma does not have a winger with excellent skills and can make breakthroughs in open areas. In terms of the

signing target, Manchester City's Echeviri had refused to loan to Girona yesterday, and Roma appreciated this signal. This may prompt Manchester City to accept Roma's conditions: loan + buyout rights, and even a Manchester City buyback clause. Initial signs of loosening from Manchester City have emerged, but the negotiations are far from the end.

At the same time, Masala is also paying attention to Salzburg's Mari winger Nene, Brighton's Enciso, Leipzig's Noosa and Wolves' Fabio Silva are all Rome's attention targets.
