Roma Seeks to Sell Matías Soulé Before June 30 With Saudi Offers Reported
Selling Soulé would generate roughly €15–20m in capital gains that Roma needs to meet its UEFA accounting requirement.
Overview
- Roma faces a June 30 Financial Fair Play accounting deadline that requires a large sale to balance its books and free funds for other transfers.
- Over the weekend multiple outlets reported Saudi clubs including Al‑Ahli and Al‑Diraiyah have formal offers worth about €30m plus add‑ons, with some reports valuing Soulé up to €40m.
- One publication said Soulé may be warming to a Saudi contract reportedly worth €12m per year, but other reports describe the player as reluctant and stalling over a move.
- A sale of Soulé would likely produce roughly €15–20m in plusvalenza (capital gains) for Roma and is being viewed as the quickest way to allow the club to pursue targets such as Mason Greenwood.
- Juventus have reopened exploratory contacts for a possible return and the outcome is time‑sensitive because negotiations must conclude before the accounting deadline, leaving Sporting and personal factors to decide the transfer path.
