RomaAtlético Talks Over Raspadori Reach Impasse as Reports Clash on Loan Deal

Atlético prioritizes recouping €22 million through a guaranteed sale.

Overview

  • Il Romanista and Football España report Roma are close to a €1.5m loan with a €18m conditional obligation to buy tied to Champions League qualification and 60% playing time.
  • Journalist Rubén Uría counters that negotiations are stuck because Roma do not want a mandatory purchase clause, leaving no agreement in place.
  • Atlético are holding to a valuation of roughly €22m and prefer a permanent transfer or a guaranteed obligation to protect their summer investment.
  • Raspadori has struggled for minutes since joining Atlético and is open to a move to secure playing time, with a return to Italy viewed favorably in multiple reports.
  • Roma’s January plans include adding at least two forwards and a defender, with Tottenham’s Radu Drăgușin seen as a loan target ahead of Chelsea’s offered option Axel Disasi.
