The Giallorossi have made concrete first steps towards Chelsea winger Alejandro Garnacho, who has previously been linked with a move to Italy and has now been identified as one of the club’s principal targets for the new project. <\/span><\/p>\n Chelsea value the Argentine at around \u20ac40m, and Roma have structured an opening proposal around a paid loan worth \u20ac5m, accompanied by a buy option set at \u20ac35m, according to Sky Sport. That option would become obligatory if certain conditions are met, a formula that would allow Roma to spread the investment over time while still guaranteeing Chelsea the full amount they are seeking.<\/span><\/p>\n Garnacho is not the only avenue Roma are exploring for their attacking positions. In recent hours the club have renewed contact over West Ham United winger Crysencio Summerville, a player particularly well regarded by both the club’s hierarchy and by Gasperini himself. No formal offer has yet been made, but the renewed dialogue underlines Roma’s determination to keep a concrete alternative open.<\/span><\/p>\n The candidacy of Diego Moreira also remains alive. AS Roma have already tabled an offer worth \u20ac30m plus 10% of any future sale for the Strasbourg forward, though the French club are holding out for a valuation closer to \u20ac50m, albeit with some room for negotiation.<\/span><\/p>\n Agent Jorge Mendes is understood to be working to close the gap between the two positions. A more distant but still live option is Club Brugge’s Tzolis, who remains on Roma’s radar should the other targets prove unattainable.<\/span><\/p>\n The renewed focus on the wide areas comes after Greenwood slipped away as a target, freeing up both budget and urgency for D’Amico to identify alternatives capable of giving Gasperini more attacking depth and variety ahead of the new season. With four separate names being tracked simultaneously, Roma appear intent on covering multiple scenarios rather than committing fully to a single move, keeping their options open depending on how each negotiation develops in the coming days.<\/span><\/p>\n Garnacho remains understood to be the priority given his profile and the structure already proposed to Chelsea, but Roma’s willingness to maintain parallel talks with West Ham, Strasbourg and Club Brugge suggests the club are prepared to move quickly on whichever deal reaches maturity first, rather than waiting on a single negotiation to conclude before turning to alternatives.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Giallorossi have made concrete first steps towards Chelsea winger Alejandro Garnacho, who has previously…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17289,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17288","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chelsea"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17288","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=17288"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17288\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/17289"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=17288"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=17288"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=17288"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
