AS Roma Pushes Hard to Loan Claudio Echeverri Amid Transfer Tug-of-War

AS Roma, led by coach Gian Piero Gasperini, is keen on securing Claudio Echeverri from Manchester City on a loan deal. The Italian club sees Echeverri as a versatile player who can perform both as an attacking midfielder and a forward, a role they are actively looking to strengthen for the upcoming season. Roma has engaged in ongoing talks with Echeverri’s agent, with the player himself showing strong interest in moving to Rome.
Despite Echeverri’s enthusiasm, Manchester City has different plans, preferring to loan him to Girona, a club within the City Football Group, aiming to oversee his development closely. This has created a stalemate since the player and his representatives favor Roma over Girona. Roma is now preparing a loan proposal similar to City’s preferred arrangement, hoping to convince the Premier League club to agree to their terms.
Echeverri is awaiting the final go-ahead from Manchester City to make the switch and begin his new journey in Serie A after spending time developing in England’s youth system. Roma views him as a key target in their transfer plans, although they are also considering other players like Fabio Silva from Wolverhampton as alternative options.
The situation remains delicate as Roma continues negotiations to break the deadlock, determined to add the promising young talent to their squad and enhance their attacking options ahead of the new season.
