Roma has set its sights on Noa Lang, the Dutch winger acquired from Napoli in July for €27 million plus €3 million in bonuses.

After a difficult start, his position at the Azzurri club has become clearer: the player is on his way out, and offers for him have rapidly increased.

In particular, after his 58th-minute substitution against Parma, followed by a grimace of dissatisfaction, the transfer market flooded open.

Roma, writes Il Corriere dello Sport, immediately entered the fray, but the situation is complicated given Napoli’s asking price: €27 million without bonuses.

The Neapolitan club is intent on recouping its summer investment and unlocking the transfer window, but Roma, coming off a costly transfer window with the €52 million acquisitions of Robinio Vaz and Malen, will be unlikely to be able to afford such a sum without a loan-with-an-obligation-to-buy deal in the summer.

If the Lang deal were to take off, Roma could say goodbye to Evan Ferguson. The Irish striker is highly regarded by Antonio Conte and could replace the Dutchman if the deal were to go through.
