The Latest AS Roma News
Roma striker Sadiq Umar is in Scotland to complete a loan move to Rangers.
The young Nigerian forward has spent the last couple of seasons on loan away from Roma, and is set to make another temporary switch to the Glasweigan club. Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard recently took over as Rangers manager, which has helped them attract a better calibre of players, and Sadiq is about to become their eighth signing of the summer. Sadiq, 21, will get the chance to play Europa League football with the Scottish club, with their campaign beginning with a 1st Qualifying Round tie on Thursday. Meanwhile, a friend of Ajax midfielder Hakim Ziyech has posted on Instagram that the Moroccan has signed a four-year contract with Roma. How true that is is unclear, especially with Monchi recently suggesting that no more players would arrive in midfield, but it will be enough to get some fans excited. Roma could be dealing with former sporting director Walter Sabatini for one transfer this summer. Sabatini is now in the same role at Sampdoria and the club are chasing Roma's Gregoire Defrel. With Duvan Zapata expected to leave the Ligurian club, they see Defrel as a replacement, according to La Gazetta Dello Sport. The same outlet report that Udinese want to take Leandro Castan from Roma. The defender has been fortunate enough to play again after brain surgery four years ago, but there is no place for him at Stadio Olimpico, so he is likely to move on this year. Serie A newcomers Frosinone have also been linked in recent days. Various outlets in Italy and Portugal are also suggesting Monchi's interest in Porto midfielder Hector Herrera. The defensive-minded player is entering the final year of his contract and does not intend to renew his deal, so Roma are studying the situation.
