Fabrizio Romano declares he is AS Roma's dream summer target

Vandaag om 19:30 the transfer market buzz shifted: weeks of speculation linked Oranje-international Crysencio Summerville with AS Roma, yet the club now appears to focus on Diego Moreira. Hij is described as the absolute dream transfer for the Italian side, a contrast highlighted by the latest update. Transferexpert Fabrizio Romano called the Belgische flankspeler a dream in his daily update, emphasizing that Diego Moreira fits the profile of a top‑class winger. The quote underscores the high regard in which the player is held, and it aligns with the club’s renewed pursuit. Roma’s willingness to meet a price above 35 million euros shows the Italian club’s determination, but Strasbourg’s asking price remains significantly higher. The Romeinen are prepared to go far to secure the Rode Duivel, yet the financial gap makes a swift agreement unlikely.

According to Romano, Jorge Mendes maintains constant contact with AS Roma, keeping the dialogue alive. Volgens the transfer expert, the Roma's representatives continue to negotiate, despite the high demand from Strasbourg, reflecting the club’s persistent interest. Earlier, Nicolò Schira reported that Roma would soon speak directly with Strasbourg, and a contract proposal extending to mid‑2031 has been floated. Trainer Gian Piero Gasperini and sport director Tony D'Amico have long praised the player, even attempting to bring him to Atalanta before the current pursuit.

Moreira has also shone for the Rode Duivels at the WK, delivering a strong performance against Senegal that boosted his profile. The Belg’s display for the national side has only intensified the interest from Rome and reinforced his reputation. The contrast between Roma’s ambitious financial offer and Strasbourg’s higher valuation reveals a deal still in limbo, leaving both clubs to navigate the gap before any final agreement can be reached.
