Gasperini wants Read at all costs: Roma prepare new bid

Gasperini wants Read at all costs: Roma prepare new bid Roma are currently focusing their efforts on Givairo Read, the Feyenoord right-back listed as one of the top priorities in the Giallorossi transfer window. All the newspapers on newsstands today are firmly focusing on the 2006-born player, for whom Tony D’Amico is in constant negotiations with the Dutch club. The goal is to provide Gian Piero Gasperini with a starter to partner Wesley on the flanks: Read is considered a sort of alter ego to the Brazilian, being a natural right-footer but also capable of playing on the left flank. This versatility would allow the coach to alternate the two wingers, deploying Wesley on the right and Read on the left, or even swapping their positions. The negotiations have entered a crucial phase. Feyenoord is asking for €30 million, while Roma has offered €28 million, boosted by the agreement already reached with Read for a contract until 2031. The gap between the two sides has thus narrowed significantly, and the two clubs are working to reach an agreement quickly. Gasperini has requested reinforcements on the flanks and hopes the deal can be completed quickly, especially since Roma considers the young Dutchman ideal due to his quality, potential, and ability to play on both flanks.
