Roma’s transfer market is entering a particularly heated phase, with the Giallorossi club engaged on multiple fronts, including incoming negotiations and financial and administrative matters yet to be resolved.

Sporting director Tony D’Amico is working to definitively close the settlement agreement, with the June 30th deadline rapidly approaching and considered a crucial step in future planning.

On a technical level, however, attention is primarily focused on the attack, where Greenwood is the top priority for both Gasperini and the management.

A series of broader evaluations are underway around him, involving various profiles being explored, from the attacking midfield to the search for a possible backup to Malen, a role deemed crucial to completing the attack.

It’s precisely in this context, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, that the name of Keinan Davis, Udinese’s center forward, who could leave Friuli in the coming weeks, comes into play.

The English striker, born in 1998, finished last season with 10 goals in 30 appearances, along with four assists, stats that make him a solid option to strengthen the squad.
