The upcoming week promises to be a decisive one for Roma’s transfer window, particularly in their search for a left-back.
According to today’s newspapers, it will be a make-or-break week for Antonio Nusa, considered Tony D’Amico and Gian Piero Gasperini’s top target.
The Norwegian has opened up about a move to the capital, but Leipzig have never budged from their €60 million valuation.
Roma have given themselves a few more hours to determine whether there’s real scope to meet the German club’s demands, but they can’t afford to endlessly pursue their Plan A.
For this reason, the Giallorossi management is continuing to work on possible alternatives.
They’re particularly interested in the name relaunched today by Corriere della Sera: Jamie Leweling, a 25-year-old attacking winger from Stuttgart.
Ambidextrous and capable of operating on both flanks, Leweling played for Germany at the last World Cup and is considered capable of bringing speed, strength, and versatility to Gasperini’s attack.
This, however, would also be a particularly expensive move: Stuttgart values the player at around €50 million, a figure not far from the one needed to secure Nusa.
