The two signings have satiated Gian Piero Gasperini\u2019s thirst at the position.

The coach has asked for a wing-back, preferably a lefty. Kostas Tsimikas hasn\u2019t panned out and Angelino hasn\u2019t been able to play in months due to respiratory problems.<\/p>\n<p>Roma have set sights on Niccol\u00f2 Fortini, rivaling Juventus and Napoli, and opened talks with Fiorentina. He has just 18 months on his contract and hasn\u2019t come to terms on a renewal. The capital club offered \u20ac7M, while the counterparty asked for \u20ac15M. The gap is significant, but the negotiation is ongoing. The main alternative is Club Brugge\u2019s Joaquin Seys, who has posted 4 goals and 3 assists in 32 matches across all competitions so far.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Giallorossi<\/em> were already searching for a center-back, and Mario Hermoso suffered a fairly significant hip injury on Sunday. The gaffer has pinpointed Radu Dragusin, and the officials will keep trying to land him.<\/p>\n<h3>Our Take on Roma<\/h3>\n<p>They bounced back nicely from a pair of blows and found some willing partners. It appears that the desire to bolster the squad to qualify for the UEFA Champions League supersedes the future strategy. They might commit a ton of money in loans with options or obligations to buy, which will limit their room to maneuver and resources for the summer.<\/p>\n<table class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color: #ebf5ff;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 60px; border: 0px;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"border: 0px; text-align: center;\"><strong>Follow us on <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Google News<\/span> for more updates on Serie A and Italian football<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><!-- Article End --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cultofcalcio.com\/roma-working-to-shore-up-other-parts-of-the-squad\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donyell Malen made an immediate impact in his Roma debut, and Robinio Vaz was okay off the bench.
