Roma isn’t just looking for reinforcements in attack. Gasperini’s mission, ahead of the upcoming transfer window, is to raise the bar on the flanks as well.
Last season, the only certainty was Wesley, with Celik providing consistency but lacking quality.
This is why Davide Zappacosta could be a popular choice again. The former Roma full-back has the ability to play on both flanks, a trait the Grugliasco-born coach greatly appreciates.
Gasperini has set his sights on Davide Zappacosta.
The two have a relationship of trust that dates back to their days at Atalanta, an experience also shared with current Roma manager Tony D’Amico.
As Repubblica reports, given the 34-year-old winger, who has already moved to Trigoria, the Nerazzurri will also consider offers lower than €10 million.
This is a more sustainable deal than others, accompanied by the certainty of bringing to the capital a player who knows Gasperini well and who guarantees a certain standard of performance: a well-built physique and the ability of a sprinter.
In recent days, Zappacosta, who appears ill-suited to Sarri’s back four, has also surpassed Dodo on the Grugliasco manager’s wish list.
