It was reported at the end of May that Roma has FC Porto's Brazilian international winger Pepê on its list. The Italian club is not the only one interested, as teams from England and other continents are also monitoring the 29-year-old, who has two caps for his country. FC Porto's administration does not plan to sell the player, who renewed his contract until 2028 last summer. However, a potential offer that surpasses the club's expectations could be considered. Pepê joined Porto in July 2021 and recorded 3 goals and 4 assists in 30 Liga Portugal appearances in the 2025/2026 season. His current Transfermarkt market value is €17.00m.
