Artem Dovbyk stated that his choice of Roma was due to the trust shown by Daniele De Rossi. Dovbyk said that he gave his word to De Rossi and chose Roma after the situation with Atletico Madrid was blocked. He also mentioned that he had already made his decision even when Atletico Madrid returned to pursue him.

Roma's coach Gasperini has rejected the idea of signing Artem Dovbyk despite seeking reinforcements.

Artem Dovbyk is expected to remain at Roma. His agent, Oleksandr Liundovsky, confirmed daily contact with Roma's management and denied any discussions of a transfer. In his first year, he scored 17 goals, outperforming some Roma legends. Currently, Transfermarkt estimates his market value at 30 million euros.
