Roma, Hummels drops in defense and Valentini goes up. But it costs seven million

Time passes and Daniele De Rossi waits. He does so patiently, trusting the promises of the owners and management, working to give the coach a competitive team with the goal of returning to the Champions League. However, there are many uncovered roles, including defense, where initially it was thought that an experienced profile like Hummels could be counted on. Better, however, to take the path of futurity and for this reason in the last few hours the stock of Nicolas Valentini, a Boca defender who De Rossi knows well, given his experience in Argentina before retiring from playing football, has risen. The defender’s contract with Boca is expiring (December of this year) and he does not intend to renew. His desire for Rome, following in the footsteps of the legend Samuel, is accelerating the path to Trigoria.

The Argentine directors, however, would not let him go for less than 7 million. A figure that Roma will necessarily have to spend, if they do not want other clubs to play in advance for the Argentine talent, on whom Como and Fiorentina have also set their sights. The next few hours will be decisive in this sense, as for Le Fee in midfield. These two could be the first calls from Ghisolfi if we exclude the arrival of the young Buba Sangarè from the Levante.
