Roma have opened talks with Milan over the potential transfer of Santiago Gimenez, who currently plays as a forward. According to multiple reliable reports, negotiations are active and ongoing after an opening bid was submitted, though there is reportedly still some distance between the clubs on valuation. However, discussions are said to remain open and constructive - as both sides explore whether there is a deal to be done. Chelsea are reportedly waiting in the wings. Finalising a fee and payment terms remains central to closing the transfer. Roma's 25/26 output of 1.0 goals per game is behind league levels. The addition of Santiago Gimenez would give them the sharper edge they're missing in front of goal. Milan continue to be linked with Juan Foyth, Andreas Christensen and Manuel Akanji while Roma are also rumoured to be tracking Florentino Luis, Wilson Odobert and Tyrell Malacia.
