The Champions League is an important showcase to attract players from big clubs to join Roma.
Gian Piero Gasperini’s side, who return to Europe’s top club after seven years, have begun preliminary discussions with Real Madrid over Brahim Diaz.
The Moroccan, who has previously played in Serie A for AC Milan, may find space in Jose Mourinho’s new Real Madrid limited, and the Blancos could be open to a transfer.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, however, the attacking midfielder appears strongly inclined to stay at Madrid for next season, effectively closing the door to any offers.
Apart from Roma, other European clubs are also trying to inquire about Brahim, but this player born in 1999 has rejected all the talks so far.
In the recently concluded season, he made 44 appearances in La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League, scoring two goals and providing seven assists.
The number one target to strengthen the offense at the moment is Mason Greenwood.
The Giallorossi management has no intention of repeating the Sancho episode of last summer and will not participate in any offer: either Marseille will accept the Roman club’s offer or they will turn to other options.
