Roma are reviewing their roster and making considerations for the season ahead.

The Giallorossi are intent on significantly lowering the club’s wage bill and thus numerous players are expected to leave Trigoria in the coming weeks.

While players like Spinazzola, Patricio and Lukaku are guaranteed to leave, others, such as Houssem Aouar and Zeki Celik are still uncertain of their fate.

Neither the Algerian midfielder nor the Turkish fullback are guaranteed to stay given their limited playing time under Daniele De Rossi.

The Roma head coach does not consider either one of them untouchable.

According to Corriere dello Sport, both have been included on the club’s transfer list.

Roma are waiting for reasonable offers to come through and will not think twice about selling them both.
