Report: Roma have agreement with Italy talent Tresoldi but need to sell Dovbyk | OneFootball

Thursday’s reports claim that there is a basic agreement in place between Roma and Italian-born striker Nicolo Tresoldi, but that the Giallorossi need to sell Artem Dovbyk before they are able to match Club Brugge’s demands for the 21-year-old.

Gian Piero Gasperini is hoping to strengthen his attack ahead of the 2025-26 campaign and is targeting a move for Marseille’s Mason Greenwood. Reports over the last few days claim that Roma want to bring in a new out-and-out centre-forward to rotate and compete with Donyell Malen as well.

According to updates from La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma are increasingly keen on the idea of picking up Tresoldi, who finished the 2025-26 season as the highest goalscorer in the Jupiler Pro League.

Tresoldi was born in Italy to Italian parents but moved to Germany to play for Hannover 96 at the age of 13 and has since gone on to represent Germany at U19 and U21 levels.

According to the latest updates from La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma have an agreement in principle on personal terms in place with Tresoldi thanks to intermediary Alessandro Moggi, but the bigger issue for the Giallorossi is completing a deal with the striker’s current employers at Club Brugge.

La Gazzetta dello Sport claims that Club Brugge value Tresoldi at €25m, while other outlets suggest a fee closer to €30m. Either way, Roma are hoping to lower the asking price set out by the Belgian side.

It is a situation that is likely to require Roma moving on current centre-forward Dovbyk first, both in order to raise the funds for a Tresoldi bid and to clear the space for him to play on a relatively regular basis at the Stadio Olimpico.

Reports earlier this week claimed that Tresoldi is also of interest to Atletico Madrid.
