Roma reportedly on the hunt for Dovbyk’s deputy as Friedkin sets a budget and considers options

Roma are actively seeking a backup striker to support Dovbyk as they delve into the January transfer window.

Given the need for another forward, manager Ranieri is particularly interested in a player who can make an impact off the bench or provide rest for the starting attacking line.

However, the club has encountered challenges with its primary targets.

Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that “Lucca and Brobbey have been deemed too expensive for a January move.”

Hence, Roma’s focus has shifted towards potential talent in Serie B, as they aim to find a cost-effective solution to bolster their attacking options.

The search continues, and as the winter window approaches, the Giallorossi remain determined to strengthen their squad depth in the forward department.
