Luiz Henrique, a Brazilian winger born in 2001 currently at Zenit, was offered to Roma as the club is known to be searching for a player in his position. However, Roma's technical staff and management, including manager Gian Piero Gasperini, did not view him as suitable for their project. His salary of 3.6 million euros per season was considered too high, especially as he scored only 6 goals in the 2025-2026 season in a league considered less competitive than Serie A. The player's value on Transfermarkt is listed at 24 million euros. Henrique joined Zenit in January 2025 and his contract is valid until the end of 2028. He has 16 caps and 2 goals for Brazil. Other clubs recently linked to the player include Botafogo, Flamengo, and Napoli.
