Roma is very interested in Mert Kömür, a 20-year-old German-Turkish attacking midfielder from Augsburg, aiming to increase the quality of Gasperini's midfield and reinforce their offensive department for the next season. However, there is considerable competition for the player, as Leipzig, Porto, Monaco, and Frankfurt are also interested. It is considered difficult for Kömür to leave Germany this summer, though the situation could change if Roma qualifies for the Champions League.
Augsburg, where the player is under contract until June 2029, does not intend to sell him for a low price and requires at least 10 million for the player, who is considered one of the most interesting prospects in German football. During the 2025/2026 Bundesliga season, the Germany U21 international made 28 appearances, scoring 2 goals and providing 4 assists. His current market value is listed by Transfermarkt at €12.00m. Reports from April 2026 indicated an asking price of €20 million, and in February 2026, it was suggested that Augsburg would negotiate for a package exceeding €15 million.
