Roma is on the verge of signing two wingers before the transfer deadline, aiming to bolster Gian Piero Gasperini's attacking lineup. The club is currently lacking a player capable of running swiftly and turning the game around. Two leading candidates for the first winger are Luiz Henrique, a Brazilian, and Leweling. The club is also monitoring the future of Gittens.
The primary target appears to be Luiz Henrique, who is currently playing for Botafogo. However, the German side has also expressed interest in him. Botafogo is willing to pay €40 million for the 2001-born player, which includes a €5 million loan fee and a €35 million buyout clause. Roma has been actively working on several deals to strengthen their attack.
A potential deal could involve the sale of Matias Soulé. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma might need to sell the player in the final hours of the transfer window. Soulé's agent is seeking a last-minute solution, partly because the former Frosinone player wants to continue playing and realizes that space at Roma is becoming limited. The club is also keeping an eye on Fulham and Newcastle, who might make an official offer for the Argentine.
If Soulé leaves Roma, there is a possibility that the club could close the deal on two wingers, completing their efforts to strengthen their attack before the transfer deadline.
