Roma Target Mason Greenwood from Marseille Amid Potential Soule and Kone Exits

AS Roma are reportedly exploring the possibility of signing Marseille forward Mason Greenwood during the upcoming summer transfer window, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. The potential move is contingent upon Roma securing Champions League qualification, which would enable the Friedkin ownership group to invest heavily in the squad. Greenwood, a former Manchester United player, has delivered an impressive season in Ligue 1 with 26 goals and several assists in 44 appearances. Manager Gian Piero Gasperini reportedly views him as a primary attacking target to pair with Donyell Malen. However, the transfer faces significant financial hurdles, with Greenwood valued at approximately €50 million and Manchester United retaining a sell-on clause. To facilitate this marquee signing, Roma may need to generate funds through player sales. Matias Soulé and Manu Koné are identified as likely departures, having attracted interest from other clubs. This strategy mirrors previous bold investments by Roma’s ownership, such as the acquisitions of Paulo Dybala and Romelu Lukaku, but remains dependent on both sporting success and strategic squad restructuring.
