Roma Consider Manu Koné Sale Under FFP Pressure as Inter Renew Interest
A June 30 accounting deadline could push Roma to accept a major offer.
Overview
- Roma, citing Saturday's reports, may need to sell before June 30 to meet Financial Fair Play rules that require healthier books.
- Inter remain keen on Manu Koné after a failed move last summer that reports linked to Roma’s decision under Claudio Ranieri.
- A fee in the €40–50 million range is being discussed for Koné, which sources say could unlock a deal.
- Roma have identified Sassuolo’s Ismael Koné as a replacement, with an asking price near €30 million and talk of €23–24 million plus bonuses due to good club relations.
- Football Italia reports Inter could try a player-plus-cash offer involving Davide Frattesi to cut the outlay.
