Roma’s Massara: We’ll seize January transfer opportunities | OneFootball

Just minutes away from the European match in Scotland featuring Celtic and Roma, Roma's Sporting Director, Massara, spoke to Sky about potential moves in the January transfer market.

Roma, Massara doesn't rule out surprises: "Ferguson needs to find more consistency, Zirkzee could be an opportunity"

Roma's Sporting Director, Frederic Massara, spoke to Sky just minutes before the start of the Europa League match between Celtic and Roma. The former Milan sporting director, in his statements, did not rule out the possible arrival of a former Serie A player, Joshua Zirkzee, to the Giallorossi.

Here are his words:

On Ferguson

"He arrived at the end of the transfer window and had a couple of injuries that hindered his condition. Now we hope he can find more consistency and also find the way to the goal as he already did in Cremona."

On the squad

"5 changes? Because we need fresh forces, at a time in the season when matches become more frequent. We have many players available who can provide us with many solutions, so the coach thought of this formation and we are confident we can do well."

On Zirkzee

"If there's an opportunity with Zirkzee that can help us and potentially strengthen the team. In that case, we will try to be ready. If there is an opportunity to find a reinforcement that can truly improve the squad or perhaps bring tactical solutions and variations available to the coach, we will try to seize it. Right now, there's a lot of talk about Zirkzee because he has played less, but lately, he is playing, so he might not even be on the market. We will see if there are any improving situations and we will try to seize them. Obviously, a stronger player with complementary characteristics to what we have is better."
