Artem Dovbyk will have to redouble their efforts this season, because the competition promises to be tough with the arrival of Evan Ferguson. Loaned with an option to buy at 38 million euros, the Irish striker impressed during his beginnings, scoring five goals in two friendly games. Even if the opponents were modest, the message is clear: Dovbyk, injured for a week and absent from the first preparation meetings, is now under pressure. Officially, the Ukrainian is not for sale, but Roma could open the door to a departure in the event of a offer deemed satisfactory.
To date, no concrete proposal has been transmitted, but Besiktas closely follows the situation. The Turkish club, which has already enlisted Tammy Abraham this summer, could make an offer soon. In June, Betis had shown shy interest, without follow -up. Valored at 30 million euros, Dovbyk could leave Roma without causing financial loss. For his part, the player is well integrated into the group and made himself available to Gasperini in early July. The coach still wishes to observe it during the English tour before deciding.
