Alessandro Romano, a 20-year-old defensive midfielder with Swiss and Italian nationality who is returning from a loan, is considered one of the main candidates to leave Roma as the club works to meet economic targets. During the latter part of the 2025/2026 season, he was on loan at Spezia Calcio, making 19 appearances in Serie B. These were in addition to his 13 appearances in Primavera 1 and 2 in Serie A earlier in that season. The Switzerland U20 international has one cap for his country, and his market value on Transfermarkt is currently €2.00m. Cagliari, Bologna, and Palermo are among the clubs that have been linked with the player. According to recent reports from June 2026, Palermo is considering a permanent transfer for a €7 million fee. Other reports value the player at approximately €8 million. In the same month, Fiorentina was reportedly prepared to make an offer of nearly €3 million.
