Gasperini is calling for six signings to shape his Roma of the future.

This is a reasonable request after the Friedkin promises of the last two transfer windows, which have focused on the future but have failed to fully accommodate the technical demands focused on the present, the so-called Malen-style signings.
Two wingers, a midfielder, a backup center forward, two wingers with spontaneous dribbling, impressive physiques, and easy goals.
These are the profiles that would give Roma a Gasperini-like shape, given the almost certain departures of Tsmikas, Zaragoza, Ferguson, Celik, El Shaarawy, and Dybala.
Any discussion about the future will hinge on the June summit between Friedkin, Ranieri, Massara, and Gasperini. It’s almost like a showdown, where even drastic decisions cannot be ruled out.
Attack remains the primary focus of Roma’s upcoming transfer window.
The attacking line will lose Ferguson and likely Dybala, El Shaarawy, Zaragoza, and who knows, maybe even Pellegrini. Venturino and Dovbyk could also be added to the list.
In short, Malen, who will be bought out, Soulé, and Vaz alone will not be enough. It’s no coincidence that the Giallorossi have identified Borussia Dortmund’s Brandt as a potential top-tier free agent.
The other priority is Malen’s replacement.
Starting midfielders will need to arrive, having to part ways with Celik and Tsimikas and not knowing how reliable Angelino is.
Massara, after focusing on Fortini, Wolfe, and Seys, has set his sights on Carlos Augusto.
The Koné deal with Inter is also still pending. It remains to be seen whether Roma’s need to make capital gains by June 30th and the Nerazzurri defender’s desire for more playing time will be intertwined.
Regardless of the French midfielder’s future, the Roman club could use at least another midfielder, and the list of free agents will include a Gasperini loyalist, namely Freuler.
