Roma plans to target Diego Moreira again after the World Cup
July 4, 2026 · Global
Roma plan to strengthen their squad by reviving interest in Diego Moreira, a promising left-back from Strasbourg, after the World Cup. Moreira has impressed for Belgium and could be a target at a more reasonable price after the tournament.
Roma is looking for players to strengthen their wing line. Celik's contract extension will be announced in the next few days, but the club feels the need to improve quality on the wing. Apart from being a former Lille player, Wesley is Roma's mainstay winger. Behind him are Rensch and Angelino, who is having a bad season due to physical problems that prevented him from playing for most of the season.
As such, Roma have turned their attention to Strasbourg's Diego Moreira. The left back, who was born in 2004, is showing impressive performance at the World Cup with Belgium. Garcia included him in the match against Senegal and he was instrumental in the comeback that occurred in stoppage time. Roma could potentially revive their interest and make a bid for Diego Moreira in the next few days.
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Strasbourg asked for €40 million a few weeks ago, a price that is unlikely to be paid by any club. Therefore, the Giallorossi could return to the negotiating table after the World Cup, to get a more reasonable fee. The player who was born in 2004 finished the season with an impressive record: 5 goals and 9 assists in 2,932 minutes played. Roma are also considering high-level investment in the left wing.
