AS Roma have entered the race to sign Julian Brandt, with the Borussia Dortmund midfielder set to become one of the most attractive free agents on the transfer market this summer.
Brandt is approaching the end of his contract at the SIGNAL IDUNA PARK and is not expected to renew, opening the door for a potential move away after several years at Dortmund.
With his availability on a free transfer, interest in his signature has intensified across Europe.
According to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport via Calciomercato, Roma have already made initial contact with Brandt’s representatives as they look to outfox rival suitors.
The Giallorossi are keen to strengthen their attacking options and view the 30-year-old as a player capable of adding creativity and experience to their midfield.
However, there is significant competition for Brandt’s signature in the market with Juventus and Como 1907 both monitoring the situation closely in Italy, while Correct Score Today has previously reported interest from Arsenal and Inter Milan.
Roma’s project could potentially give them an upper hand as the opportunity to work under Gian Piero Gasperini is believed to be a factor that could weigh significantly in Brandt’s decision-making process.
The Italian gaffer’s attacking system is seen as a strong fit for the German’s style of play.
From a financial standpoint, the Giallorossi are also in a good position to close a deal.
Brandt is expected to command a salary in the region of €4 million and that figure aligns with Roma’s current wage structure, making the transfer a realistic proposition.
With his experience and consistent output in recent seasons, Brandt represents a valuable opportunity in the transfer market and as the summer window approaches, Roma fans will be hoping their club can get this deal for the German star over the line.
