Roma will have the chance to return to the Champions League this evening at 8:45 PM: a win at the Bentegodi against Hellas Verona is imperative for Gasperini’s team, which will avoid having to watch the results of Como and Juventus.
A potential return to the Champions League would mean increased revenue, increased investment, and high-level players like Moise Kean being eyed.
As reported by calciomercato.it, the Giallorossi, if they finish fourth, could make a move for the Italian national team striker.
The Fiorentina striker hasn’t repeated the excellent season he enjoyed under Raffaele Palladino in 2024-25, which ended with 19 goals in Serie A, but his value remains high.
Kean finished the season with Fiorentina with eight league goals and a series of physical issues. Fiorentina values their striker at around €45 million, which is why Roma, interested in the player, is reportedly considering a strategy to lower the Tuscans’ asking price.
The Giallorossi’s plan is to include Dovbyk in the deal, now out of Gasperini’s plans.
The Roman club could then offer €20 million plus the Ukrainian’s fee, which, however, earns Fiorentina a significant amount.
Everything hinges on tonight’s match against Hellas Verona: Roma must win to create the conditions for a difficult deal that will boost their attacking strength for next season.
