Roma Put Artem Dovbyk on Market as Loan-With-Buy Option Gains Traction
The club is seeking a move that converts Dovbyk into transfer funds to reshape the attack under coach Gian Piero Gasperini.
Overview
- Roma have made striker Artem Dovbyk available for transfer with the club open to loan deals that include an obligation or option to buy to ease the sale process.
- Turkish side Trabzonspor have renewed interest in Dovbyk but continue to treat a full medical and the exact deal formula as decisive before progressing.
- Spanish clubs Real Betis and Villarreal have carried out exploratory enquiries, with Roma valuing Dovbyk at roughly €23 million and preferring structures that protect their finances.
- Dovbyk’s 2025–26 season was limited by repeated injuries and he made about 18 appearances, a record that has made medical clearance a key negotiating issue.
- Roma’s urgency to sell is linked to funding attacking targets such as Mason Greenwood and to coach Gasperini’s plan to alter the club’s forward profile ahead of pre-season.
