Roma are reported to be close to signing Bologna striker Santiago Castro for a fee of about €35 million, according to Football Italia and Yahoo Sports. Both outlets frame the move as an emerging agreement rather than a completed transfer.
The reports also describe how Roma’s striker plans connect to other potential deals. Yahoo Sports says that Artem Dovbyk is likely to go in the opposite direction on loan, implying a possible exchange or player-swapping arrangement between Roma and Bologna. Football Italia mentions Dovbyk as a target in the wider striker market.
Separately, the outlets discuss other names linked with Roma but deemed difficult. Yahoo Sports states that Marcus Rashford is not a viable option for Roma because his wages at Manchester United are too high. Football Italia similarly references the financial obstacle in relation to Rashford.
Overall, the coverage centers on Roma’s reported pursuit of Castro for €35m, while outlining competing striker possibilities and the constraints that rule some targets out.
