If Roma does not find the funds for Jose Mourinho's wishes, I will be very surprised. Already in the middle of last season, rumors were pouring into the press about Jose's dissatisfaction with the club's transfers and I was very surprised when it turned out that Mourinho remained at the club. This means that the head coach was promised strong transfers. No matter how much Lazio fans laugh at Mourinho, Mourinho leads Roma to titles. And some of the players, at least the Dybala, remain in the club only because of the presence of the frantic Jose as coach.
If José Mourinho wanted to exits, he would have done that long ago, even before anyone noticed. AS Roma has fantastic players on the way and an adequate expenditure for next season. The board feels satisfied with the outstanding job that the boss is executing, and they aspire to win the Scudetto someday, as Napoli did last season. José Mourinho has been unable to win big trophies for the club simply because AS Roma has failed to fulfill the needed challenges. Whatever situation José Mourinho found himself in, he always had the choice to go.

I am not sure about it.From transfermarkt.com data for AS Roma transfer in 2023 - 2024 season, they have many players returned to their club after end of loan contracts. They only have three new players so far, two players are free transfers and one player is from a loan.
They have yet paid any amount of money for transfers in this summer and with one month left, it's impossible to see Roma spends too big transfer money. Three players they have gotten so far from this summer transfer are: Ndicka, Aouar (free transfers) and Kristensen (a loan).

Chelsea have offered Juventus €20 million in addition to Romelu Lukaku to acquire the services of Dusan Vlahovic this summer, according to Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport.
Source: https://www.astamfordbridgetoofar.com/2023/08/juventus-e20-million-chelsea-romelu-lukaku-dusan-vlahovic-swap-transfer/Finally, chelsea has been responding juventus's offer for lukaku. Chelsea wants juventus to accept lukaku + 20 million to be exchanged for vlahovic and i think that is already a win win situation for chelsea and juventus. I meant if we must also be aware how lukaku has a better stat compared with vlahovic and it's already a good offer from chelsea. Juventus shall think about accepting it. There will be no club that wants vlahovic at this moment with such rate.
That depends on the decision of the management. Mourinho wants a specific player for the upcoming season, but it depends on management's response. I don't even know what to describe this club if roma will not even try to send bid for the player that already targeted by its coach. As roma almost spent zero money last transfer season. It will be a disaster if the club gonna repeat the same thing again. I would not like to call this as a big team caused by this is a poor club that has no money to buy the new player. Mourinho was trying to efficiently building the squad with the minimum budget. It will be so stupid if the club keep stand on its decision not to spend any money at this summer transfer market. Let's see what's gonna be the response from roma regarding this. Its coach has sent a request to the club to get some specific players. This club can at least buy a good player if roma can't afford to buy a lot of players due to the financial problem.

I understand Roma that their priority is to maintain current squad integrity. After that they want to make some decent additions to the squad to get stronger. But they never spend a huge deal of money for a transfer. Yeah there have been really only free transfers made by them so far. But there is still another whole month for the transfer window to be closed.
They made really good transfers last summer and most of them were free transfers again. They are again aiming to close another transfer window with the minimum number of money spent. We will see whether it will be enough to finish a season in top four finally.

I think Roma was mistaken and they should invest and spend some money for their team to hire better players if Murinihu needs new players for the next season because Roma in the last season had some problems and they didn't have a good sticker to fill the empty place of Dybala if he gets injured.
José Mourinho already has a large list of players he wants to buy to strengthen the team from Rome, but unfortunately, the financial condition of Rome is currently not good and the price of quality players is currently very expensive. José Mourinho is still waiting for the right time to buy other players in order to keep Rome's finances well maintained.

Roma haven't spent any money on a transfer fee so far in their transfers. There are only a couple of free transfers so far. Do they really plan to make do with such transfers? Because there isn't much time left for the season to start. I know that Roma can still be competitive in the European competitions they have joined with the current squad. But it isn't exactly the case as for the Serie A. They have been struggling to finish a season in top 4. I don't think the board is contented with that.
Their goal must be to join the Champions League by finishing in top 4. They might need some additions to strengthen the weakest areas to increase their chance to do that.

This situation pushing Mourinho to look for new forward players and they indeed linked to several players just like Morata and Scamacca but it's not easy for Roma to gets them although Morata release clause was only 21 millions but Roma doesn't have much money to buy him even so with Scamacca currently Roma is working on to gets this player for loan option and Scamacca himself has been agree moved to Roma but it's not easy because West Ham want to sell him but not to loan him to other clubs

I think Roma should be able to bring in new players in this transfer window because they have to be able to make big changes to the front line because one of their stickers has suffered a pretty bad injury and is expected to be out for a long time. Tammy Abraham suffered a serious injury so that Mourinho had to find a replacement in this transfer window.
Impossible rumor with Milan want to sign Victor Osimhen from Napoli, I don't think Milan have enough money for paying 100 million euro or above from this values for paying fees transfer. Usually AC Milan is the teams interested for signing players not get regular position in their teams with lower fees transfer. Current Milan transfer activities, most player signing after their contract have been over and easily signing with free agent without paying transfer fees.
Its not difference level and player composition between Napoli and AC Milan, I think Victor Osimhen will prefer staying with Napoli than move to AC Milan will difficult chance winning scudetto next season.
I'm not underestimating Milan's financial capabilities if they really want to sign Osimhen, but it seems that the rumor is very irresponsible. Osimhen is likely to be better off playing for Napoli than moving to Milan, but it is always possible to find himself playing for another team outside of Serie A regardless of whether in the Arab Pro League or also maybe to France with PSG.Its not difference level and player composition between Napoli and AC Milan, I think Victor Osimhen will prefer staying with Napoli than move to AC Milan will difficult chance winning scudetto next season.
Of course I'm not saying it's impossible in football, but it's hard to believe that Milan are really interested in recruiting Osimhen, who incidentally has a super expensive transfer value. So yes, Milan are not to sign Osimhen and so far the rumors don't seem strong.
There is no problem Milan wanting to bring Victor Osimhen or not but there is no way he is willing to leave Napoli right now.. And I don’t see why a player will go from Napoli to Milan right now. Do not see this as an upgrade for that player. After all money is not everything. If he is able to perform well in his current team, with his current team, he will eventually get better contract. It is obviously not impossible for this to happen. We have seen weird things happen in football. But I have to say that this is certainly only a rumour and this does not have any strength behind it.

I never believed the rumour that Victor Osimhen is likely to leave Napoli and join another Italian club like AC Milan not just because of the fact that the player's current market value will be too high for any of the Italian clubs at the moment but because I think Napoli gives him better chances of winning more trophies than AC Milan will do.
Agree. It seems no Italian clubs who can pay the transfer fees of Osimhen. Napoli is probably to sell him around €150m because his current market value is €120m. I'm not sure AC Milan, Inter Milan, or Juventus has the huge amount of money. If Osimhen leaves the club, he probably moves to another league. He can move to EPL, La Liga, Ligue 1, or Bundesliga. I think only top EPL teams, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and PSG that can pay the transfer fees of Osimhen. So, it seems no chance for Osimhen to move to AC Milan.According to the news it is said that Romelu Lukaku has accepted a 3years contract with juventus and both parties are waiting patiently for a deal to come through before the end of the transfer window,
Where do you get the news?I still didn't hear any news that claim where Lukaku to move.
If he accepted 3 years contract with Juventus, it means the deal is already achieved.

I don't even know where Osimhen to Milan rumours came from. Because this is just nonsense to me now. Why would he leave a team which is in better condition? Let's say he wanted to join a much bigger team than I would understand. But Milan aren't a team that have had that kind of status in the recent times.
I would expect Osimhen to sign for only top European teams in other top leagues. I don't expect less than that to happen. Otherwise he would just continue his career at Napoli. They have already been reported to be working on a contract extension.

The rumors was not true, because Victor Osimhen never want to leave Napoli to AC Milan than to leave Napoli to premier league club but their manager has increased the salary of Victor Osimhen, which victor Osimhen have to think very well not to regret of leaving the team to another team when his contract is not yet expire. I think, AC Milan need a young talented strikers in this summer so that they will not experience what they experienced last season in the Italian league competition, but I don't think their president have any budget for that in this season and it will really affect the performance of AC Milan in this tournament. I believe Victor Osimhen will not leave Napoli in this summer than to wait to help the team to win another title in this season before he can join premier league team, because that is his next move.
It's not just about club selection but their finances don't allow for such a thing so it would just be silly news.
Why is it that there is so much news that is not clear because even things like this in my opinion do not need to be discussed further because the results remain the same considering this is just an impossibility.
News like this should be avoided because in my opinion, things like this only benefit some media who only want their traffic to be large because of the big news but do not provide true news.

Current Milan transfer activities, most player signing after their contract have been over and easily signing with free agent without paying transfer fees.
Victor Osimhen is a player that have a very huge price tag due to the scarcity of strikers and his outstanding performance last season both in Seria A and the Champions League, therefore, I don't also think that AC Milan will afford paying that huge amount of money for just one player even if they have the money because they have already signed some couple of players that will support the team in this coming season, therefore signing Osimhen is not really necessary for them.Quote

Exactly! If Osimhen will stay in Seria A, he would rather stay in Napoli than moving to any other team withing the League because he has already set a standard in the Napoli's team.
I agree! these are completely unfounded rumors, Milan currently cannot afford a player of high economic value like Osimhen, the valuation given by Napoli is around 180 million, an excessive price for any team in Serie A. I also think that Osimhen will never want to leave Naples to join another Italian team and as he himself said in an interview he will leave Naples only to go and play in the Premier League
Italian teams cannot afford the high price asked by Napoli and regardless of what the player express regarding playing in another Italian team, I highly doubt Napoli will let him play with their direct opponents!For Juventus, it appears they figured out a way to bring Lukaku from Chelsea although rumours are still mentioning an eventual swap deal with Vlahovic.
The story of Lukaku's transfer to Juventus now seems like an endless soap opera, but I'm starting to think that before the transfer market ends, this deal will be done, and it will be strange for Inter fans to see the one who declared his eternal love for the black and blue colors go to play with Juventus' bitter enemies, it's a pity only for Juventus that to get Lukaku they will have to sell Vlahovic and in my opinion they will lose a striker who could become a decisive player in the Italian championship

Apart from that, AC Milan is still relying on Leao and Giroud next season so there won't be a big obstacle to the depth of their squad next season. AC Milan is one of the teams that is quite active in this transfer window because they got an injection of fresh funds after successfully selling Tonali to Newcastle United.

If AC Milan are known for not purchasing player with their money most times and are very stringent with spending then this deal will never work out. 100 million euros is not a small money and not all team can afford such amount for a top striker like Osimehn. Another reason i feel it won’t work out is that, both Napoli and AC Milan are top teams in the Serie A and they won’t sell one of their best player to a worthy competitor like AC Milan, they’ll definitely regret it as time goes when he begins to prevail against them when they meet in matches.
Italian teams cannot afford the high price asked by Napoli and regardless of what the player express regarding playing in another Italian team, I highly doubt Napoli will let him play with their direct opponents!
For Juventus, it appears they figured out a way to bring Lukaku from Chelsea although rumours are still mentioning an eventual swap deal with Vlahovic.
Based on Serie A transfer records, Juventus had 1 expensive transfer from Napoli in the 2016-2017 season for Gonzalo Higuaín. Juventus recruited Gonzalo Higuaín with a transfer value of 90 million Euros at that time, but in the 2018-2019 season Juventus again completed an expensive transfer for Cristiano Ronaldo with a value of 117 Million Euros.For Juventus, it appears they figured out a way to bring Lukaku from Chelsea although rumours are still mentioning an eventual swap deal with Vlahovic.
So nothing is impossible about the possibility of Victor Osimhen moving to another Serie A team. Juventus can complete the transfer, but I don't think Victor Osimhen is worth his current value. For now Juventus don't need to sign Osimhen, but I hope they can have a good striker to contribute a lot to them next season.
Do you think Okafor transfer will be enough for Milan to keep their attacking line strong? I don't think so truthfully. Because Okafor isn't much of an impressive scorer considering his stats lately. He is quite young though but Milan need more of a player who can be beneficial by scoring many goals in his first season already.
I think Leao can score more goals than Okafor comfortably this season. They could have gone for Morata for example. I think he can be more beneficial than Okafor. I think truthfully that Morata is a little overrated player but he is still a quite decent player. He can make a nice contribution with not only goals but also assists.

Okafor is a decent player. But obviously I also believe that Leao who will be able to score more goals compared to him. Morata he’s already 30. He’s also going to be 31 in the next three months. Personally, I don’t think Morata is a top-level striker. He is good. No doubt about that. But he is not top-level in my opinion. But on this point, I will agree with you that he is certainly better compared to Okafor. I also believe that there are other options which will be far better compared to Okafor. I agree that Morata is overrated. But better than Okafor.
