ROMA – One day to debut, one day less to hire a centre-forward. Tomorrow, against Salernitana, Mourinho asks Belotti for the goals he hasn’t had in an entire championship. But in perspective, Roma must absolutely insert a staff reliable striker, in addition to the young profile that Tiago Pinto had identified a month ago in the Brazilian Marcos Leonardo. Having said that the negotiation with Santos can still be reopened in January, but without changing the economic conditions of the 10 million plus 8 bonus offer. the most affordable name for an immediate purchase stay Duvan Zapata. He is not the first choice nor the second but he can become a good replacement for Abraham if he is well. However, the requests of Atalanta who demand a permanent transfer must be followed: Tiago Pinto is waiting for the OK from the Friedkins before closing for 6 million plus bonuses. Zapata has already accepted the contract until 2026, one year more than the Bergamo deadline, for around 3 million net per season.
Rome, waiting for Thiago Pinto
But since the transfer window is still open, with the great international dominance of the forwards not yet kicking off, Roma could also decide to wait. In any case, by now the “delay” denounced by Mourinho in our interview does not have the power of reversibility. Tiago Pinto he believes that there is no point in rushing the decision even if on 1 September, coinciding with the closing of the market, Roma will be called to their first major match of the season, with Milan guests at the Olimpico. Dealing with the only Belotti, and possibly El Shaarawy, the first three days of the championship risk complicating Mourinho’s search for goals instead of simplifying it. It could only be worth it if Roma could come back up with conviction Alvaro Morata, the coach’s only summer wish. At the moment, however, Morata plays and scores with Atletico Madrid, has started La Liga with a bang and seems no longer reachable.
Roma, idea Gnonto
On the other hand, younger profiles such as the Frenchman remain on the table Hugo Ekitikea jewel born in 2002 from PSG who is also very interested in Milan, and the Spanish Abel Ruiz, born in 2000 from Braga who faced Roma a few weeks ago (without shining) in the training camp in Albufeira. The approach for the Albanian international is more difficult Numbers of Chelsea, born in 2001: he was blocked by coach Pochettino. Among other things, having just returned from an operation on the crusader, he represents an unknown factor. In the last few hours, meanwhile, the indiscretion of an approach with the blue has been circulating Willy Gnonto, who wants to leave Leeds after relegation and would gladly prove himself at a big Italian club. But here we are no longer talking about centre-forwards. We’re talking about an investment in a 2003 forward who can be considered as a reinforcement under certain conditions. Who knows what Mourinho thinks, who today called a press conference in Trigoria despite the disqualification: Tiago Pinto promised him two reinforcements by the end of the market.
