World Cup
Roma eye Chelsea Alejandro Garnacho as Crysencio Summerville looms
Serie A side Roma remain focused on signing Chelsea’s Argentine winger Alejandro Garnacho even as they advance negotiations for West Ham’s Dutch winger Crysencio Summerville, a move that could strain the club’s finances and complicate the pursuit of the Chelsea talent.
Roma have taken a concrete step toward acquiring West Ham’s Dutch winger Crysencio Summerville. The Serie A club’s move demonstrates its intent to bolster the flanks.
Alfredo Pedulla reported that the transfer for the Dutchman is gathering pace. He emphasized that this progress does not divert attention from the chase for Alejandro Garnacho.
Negotiations concerning Chelsea’s Argentine winger Alejandro Garnacho remain active. The Giallorossi have confirmed they have not abandoned the pursuit. Some reports have listed the Chelsea target as Alejandra Garnacho, but the player is Alejandro Garnacho.
Roma aim to sign two attacking wingers and have shown particular interest in the Argentine. Names such as Nahuel Molina and Dodo have surfaced in speculation, yet the club has not signalled any intent to pursue them.
The Argentine is reported to be fully focused on the World Cup final. Analysts believe the mentions of Molina and Dodo are merely rumors without confirmed interest from Roma.
Summerville’s transfer is expected to cost Roma a significant amount, potentially complicating the acquisition of Garnacho. Garnacho is unlikely to be cheap, and Chelsea is not expected to ease the deal, especially as they are not targeting Diego Moreira.
Consequently, Roma may need to sell a player to fund the signing of the ex‑Manchester United man. The dual pursuit highlights the financial challenge the club faces in the current transfer market.
