Roma has intensified their efforts in the transfer market, increasing their bid for Flamengo`s Wesley to €25 million while also preparing an offer for Hellas Verona defender Daniele Ghilardi.
The ongoing negotiations for Wesley have seen Roma raise their initial offer of €20 million plus €2 million in bonuses. The new bid of €25 million, including add-ons, demonstrates the club`s determination to secure the player`s services. Roma remains confident in their position, knowing that Wesley has expressed a strong desire to join them at the Stadio Olimpico.
Simultaneously, Roma is looking to bolster their defense under new coach Gian Piero Gasperini. Their latest target is 22-year-old center-back Daniele Ghilardi from Hellas Verona. The young defender, who regularly features for Italy`s Under-21 team, has already attracted interest from Real Betis. However, Roma has now surpassed the Spanish club`s offer with their own proposal.
Ghilardi, a product of Fiorentina`s youth academy, has shown significant growth at Verona and gained valuable experience through loan spells at Mantova and Sampdoria. His potential acquisition would add depth and talent to Roma`s defensive lineup.
As Roma continues to strengthen their squad, these moves signal the club`s ambition to compete at the highest level in the upcoming season. The coming days will be crucial in determining whether they can successfully secure both Wesley and Ghilardi to reinforce their team.
