Roma is interested in acquiring Lorenzo Pirola to strengthen their defensive line. Olympiacos is expected to demand a transfer fee ranging from 15 to 20 million euros for the highly-rated central defender. The interest is reported by footitalia.com and noted by Ben Horlock on Twitter. Gasperini has requested five transfers, including a central defender, which may include Pirola.

Lorenzo Pirola is enjoying a successful season with Olympiakos, which has caught the attention of several prominent Italian clubs, such as Napoli and Juventus. AS Roma is also keeping a close eye on the young center-back's progress. Despite this interest, Olympiakos is not rushing to sell him, as they have faith in his potential and value their 3 million euro investment made last summer to acquire him from Salernitana. Pirola, who serves as the captain of Italy's Under-21 national team, has made 27 appearances for Olympiakos this season, demonstrating his high-level skills.
