Roma Compile Two-Man Back-up List for Their Pursuit of Granit Xhaka

Roma's hopes of landing Arsenal's Granit Xhaka have been thrown into a corridor of doubt, prompting the Giallorossi to seek other alternatives. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport (via ChiesaDiTotti), the Italian club's officials have placed a watchful eye on AZ Alkmaar's Teun Koopmeiners and Borussia Dortmund's Thomas Delaney to improve the midfield options.

Roma Need to Raise Their Bids to Complete Few First-Choice Signings

Roma are working on multiple deals, but they have to step up their financial efforts to finalize them. The Giallorossi have opened talks to acquire Sardar Azmoun, but they must improve their offer to convince his club to sell him. The same goes for Granit Xhaka and Eldor Shomurodov. Alexander Sorloth could emerge as an alternative later on if they could not get their main targets.

Roma Get Their New Left-Back, Set to Renew Efforts to Sign Xhaka

Roma have found their new left-back as they have come to terms to acquire Matias Vina from Palmeiras. Director Tiago Pinto confirmed his arrival to some fans. Moreover, they will soon make the final push to acquire Granit Xhaka from Arsenal, who has long been their top target to bolster the midfielder. However, they will have to slightly raise their previous bid.

Roma Get Boost from Sales, Set to Raise Offers for Priority Signings

Roma quickly identified their top targets to bolster the squad. However, the negotiations have dragged as they could not come to terms with their teams. Some help should soon come from Olympique Marseille, which are closing in on acquiring Cengiz Under and Pau Lopez. The Giallorossi are set to reinvest the money to raise their bids for Wolverhampton's Rui Patricio and Arsenal's Granit Xhaka. Filip Kostic is also on their list.
Roma made some adjustments in the midfield in January, but José Mourinho has not stopped considering Granit Xhaka the ideal signing in the role.

Suspension, Yellow Card and Injury Updates Ahead of Euro Quarter Finals

Just one player will miss the quarterfinals of the Euro due to suspension. Still, it is a major blow to Switzerland, which will face Spain without Granit Xhaka. Several players are in danger of skipping the semifinals as they are one yellow card away from disqualification. The list includes Harry Maguire, Phil Foden, Sergio Busquests, Jordi Alba, and Nicolò Barella. Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne might be able to recover for the Italy game.

Roma to Target Aston Villa Midfielder If They Could Not Sign Xhaka

Roma do not want to raise their offer for Granit Xhaka and are canvassing the market for possible alternatives. Douglas Luiz is at the top of their short-list, and they have been tracking him for weeks. They would start bidding for the Aston Villa midfielder if they could not reach agreement with Arsenal. They would consider spending a little more for the Brazilian midfielder since he is six years younger than the Swiss international.
