To compete for a Champions League spot until the end of the season, Gian Piero Gasperini\u2019s Roma will need some transfer reinforcements. <\/p>\n
Starting January 1st, the date the winter transfer window officially opens, Sporting Director Massara will attempt to bring the reinforcements the Piedmontese coach has long hoped for and requested. <\/p>\n
Regarding Giacomo Raspadori, Atl\u00e9tico Madrid has not yet agreed to a loan with no obligation to buy. Roma, in fact, would prefer a loan with an option to buy (which could at most become a commitment under certain conditions). <\/p>\n
The Giallorossi are also in talks with Manchester United for the transfer of Joshua Zirkzee, with the player having expressed a desire to move to Trigoria. <\/p>\n
The main issue remains the English club\u2019s willingness to sign him, but they could let the player leave before mid-January.<\/p>\n
In addition to strengthening their attack, Roma are also looking for a new defender. <\/p>\n
Given the absence of Ndicka, who is playing in the Africa Cup of Nations with his Ivory Coast team, Gian Piero Gasperini has suggested Axel Disasi as a possible addition to the Giallorossi defense, paving the way for a possible deal. <\/p>\n
The former Monaco player, currently owned by Chelsea, would, however, be forced to join Roma permanently: the Blues have filled all their loan slots, reports Il Tempo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"To compete for a Champions League spot until the end of the season, Gian Piero Gasperini\u2019s Roma will…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":367570,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[440],"tags":[49,48,561,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-367569","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-soccer","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-soccer","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367569","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=367569"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367569\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/367570"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=367569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=367569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=367569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
