AS Roma interested in Alan Varela, says Gazzetta dello Sport | OneFootball

Gazzetta dello Sport reports that AS Roma have Alan Varela on their radar as they look to strengthen their midfield. The FC Porto midfielder is among the names being considered to replace Manu Koné, whose departure could happen during this summer transfer window.

The same publication notes, however, that signing Alan Varela will be difficult to pull off. The Italian club also have other alternatives under consideration: Arne Engels of Celtic, valued at between €20 million and €25 million; Danilo Santos of Botafogo, whose price is expected to be between €30 million and €35 million; Quinten Timber of Marseille; and Camara of Monaco.

Signed by FC Porto in the 2023/24 season, Alan Varela is under contract with the Dragons until the summer of 2030 and is protected by a €75 million release clause. According to Transfermarkt, the 25-year-old Argentine midfielder is valued at €32 million.
