Roma Push to Land Read and Nusa as Gasperini Presses for Rapid Deals

Overview

• Roma have offered €25 million for Feyenoord right‑back Givairo Read, structured as €23 million guaranteed plus €2 million in bonuses while Feyenoord is holding out for about €28 million in guaranteed cash.
• RB Leipzig value winger Antonio Nusa at roughly €55 million, which sits about €10 million above Roma’s reported comfort zone and is the main obstacle slowing that pursuit.
• Manager Gian Piero Gasperini has personally intervened, phoning Read from Roma’s training camp to promise a starting role and urging the club publicly to speed up transfer activity.
• Sporting director Tony D’Amico is juggling multiple negotiation tracks and keeping alternative targets in mind so Roma can move on quickly if sellers refuse to bridge valuation differences.
• The club expects a decisive development imminently that will either be a higher offer, a breakthrough agreement, or a decision to stop pursuing one or both players, and the outcome will shape Roma’s final moves before the window closes.
