Roma are ready to rival Inter Milan in the race to sign Como midfielder Nico Paz and Lecce striker Nikola Krstovivc.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews.

Roma are considering a future beyond Paulo Dybala.

The Argentine former Juventus and Palermo forward has been a talismanic figure for the Giallorossi since his arrival in 2022.

However, persistent injuries have always been a problem for Dybala. And the Argentine has undergone surgery on a thigh injury, which will rule him out for the rest of the season.

Beyond the end of the campaign, Roma hardly feel that they can rely on Dybala.
