Roma Prepare €40m Opening Bid for Mason Greenwood

The proposed package risks falling short of Marseille’s €50–55m valuation and will be further reduced by a sell‑on clause that sends a large share to Manchester United.

Overview

  • Reports say AS Roma are ready to submit an opening offer of about €40m plus add‑ons to sign Mason Greenwood from Olympique de Marseille.
  • Marseille are understood to be holding out for roughly €50–55m, leaving a clear valuation gap that must be bridged in talks.
  • A sell‑on arrangement from Greenwood’s 2024 move means Manchester United is due 40% of any sell‑on fee, reducing the cash Marseille would keep from a sale.
  • Greenwood has boosted his market value with a standout 2025/26 season, scoring 26 goals and providing 11 assists, which has attracted interest from several European clubs.
  • Negotiations are expected to continue as Marseille weigh financial needs and dressing‑room issues against losing their top scorer and Roma use their extra Champions League budget to press the pursuit.
