For the attack, barring any late surprises, Roma are to decide between two players, Sorloth and En-Nesyri.

As Matteo Moretto of Relevo reports, the Giallorossi have had positive talks with Sorloth’s entourage, who has expressed interest in Roma’s project.

At the moment, however, there is still no agreement between the parties.

Furthermore, Roma have yet to settle matters with Villareal, who at the moment have not budged from the request of 38 million euros, or the price of the release clause to let the player leave.

Offers for Sorloth also came from the Premier League, with West Ham offering almost 30 million euros. The Saudi club Al-Qadsiah had also offered a hefty contract to the player, but the negotiation immediately stalled.

Roma are currently focusing their efforts on Youssef En-Nesyri, deemed a more accessible target.
