Roma are intensifying efforts to sign Palmeiras midfielder Richard Rios, aiming for a quick deal to bolster Gian Piero Gasperini's squad for the 2025-26 season. They are the sole Serie A club in talks for the 25-year-old Colombian.
AS Roma is reportedly in advanced negotiations with Benfica's Turkish international midfielder Orkun Kokcu, 24, as the Giallorossi continue their squad overhaul under new coach Gian Piero Gasperini and director Frederic Massara.
