AS Roma pursues its very active summer transfer window. The Roman formation wishes to please its new coach, Gian Piero Gasperini, by adapting the workforce to its requirements. And for good reason: after the arrivals of the striker Evan Ferguson (Brighton, loan with purchase option) and Neil El Aynaoui (Lens, 25 M €), the Louve still plans to complete a new offensive element and would have identified Claudio Echeverri (19).
Trained in River Plate, the young Argentinian attacking midfielder was recruited by Manchester City in January 2024, before being loaned to the Millonario stride until last winter. According to Calciomercatothe two clubs have been in discussions for a few days, but the formula privileged by the Romans – a loan with option to buy – does not completely convince the Cityzens, who probably do not want to take the risk of permanently losing their nugget. Despite his talent, Echeverri only played three games in the Skyblues jersey: one in the Premier League, one in the FA Cup final, and one at the Club World Cup, where he had also marked against Al-Ain.
