Gasperini wants Tresoldi as Roma’s Malen back-up

Gasperini wants Tresoldi as Roma’s Malen back-up On Gian Piero Gasperini’s tactical board, a name is rumored to be written in red: Nicolò Tresoldi. The center forward for Club Brugge. A talent closely monitored in recent months, far from prying eyes, and one for whom the coach holds great esteem. Moving along a fine line of interlocking destinies, Roma is targeting the Italian-German player as Malen’s understudy. However, they will have to make a dramatic departure: that of Ukrainian Artem Dovbyk. Club Brugge value him at €25 million, and the Giallorossi would like to sign him on loan with an option to buy. A son of a talented player (his father, Emanuele, was a defender for Atalanta) and a failed tennis player (he’s a friend of Flavio Cobolli), Tresoldi has already expressed his admiration for Roma. He has been put at the forefront of the Giallorossi’s ranks, writes Alessio D’Urso in La Gazzetta dello Sport , compared to other strikers who are also suitable for the role of Malen’s deputy, such as Sassuolo’s Andrea Pinamonti. Other targets to be achieved this week include the renewals of Dybala (now only just being made official), Celik, and Pellegrini, and, above all, the acquisition of Mason Greenwood from OM, for whom the club is expected to submit a €45 million offer including bonuses by tomorrow.
