Besiktas makes another attempt for Renato Sanches from Roma

Roma FC’s situation in the transfer market is now crystal clear: without outgoing transfers, the club will be unable to strengthen its squad in this winter transfer window. Young Dutch player, Ian Huijsen’s sterling performance in the derby marked his first start among the senior players.

Despite such promising talent, manager José Mourinho continues to grapple with shortages in the defence and midfield positions. He remains anticipative, but not hopeful, at least until he sees some of his players at Trigoria packing their bags and bidding their teammates goodbye. His statement is seen as an open call to the club’s management for reinforcement during the current transfer window.
