Ryan Friedkin arrives in Rome to meet with Gasperini Ryan Friedkin arrived in the capital on Friday to prepare for the future of Roma. In these situations, the Texans are accustomed to working behind the scenes, and just as the first meeting with Gian Piero Gasperini took place in Florence a year ago, the hunt for a sporting director will continue with the same modus operandi today. The aim is to shape the future of the Roman club away from prying eyes.
Dan’s son is moving between Rome, Milan, and Florence, knowing that the search for a replacement for Frederic Massara, who he knows will soon be dismissed, is a priority. While Ryan is touring Italy, a key figure remains in Trigoria. His brother Corbin, Corbin, is reportedly the Friedkins’ goal of increasingly involving Roma.
Ryan will soon meet with Gasperini to discuss some issues. Regarding the capital gains issue, the situation is clear: the Americans will attempt to negotiate with UEFA to ease the financial demands, seeking to exit the settlement agreement with a fine, but, barring any glaring exceptions, the sale of a key player will be necessary. Then the Grugliasco-born coach made it clear that he wants the “senators”—Gianluca Mancini, Bryan Cristante, and Lorenzo Pellegrini—to be renewed, as well as Paulo Dybala.
After that, it will be time to dive into the market. The Friedkins have made one thing clear: regardless of the team’s revenue and ranking, there will be a significant budget for the next sporting director. This demonstrates that, beyond words, there is a firm commitment to supporting Gasperini.
