Zalewski, Hermoso looking to depart Roma in January

Roma are likely to bring in fresh reinforcements in the winter transfer window.

This, however, will motivate the club to part ways with players not deemed compatible with the current project and the team’s long-term plans under Claudio Ranieri.

Nicola Zalewski is the first name on the to-go list due to his limited playing time so far and the expiring contract which sees Roma at risk of losing him in free agency.

To avoid this, the Giallorossi would be content with a minor fee to let him go in January.

Additionally, writes Corriere della Sera, Mario Hermoso is also out of the club’s plans after only a few months in the capital.

The Spanish defender has never fully entered Roma’s mechanisms.

Due to a more than precarious physical situation – he has been training separately for a month – and performances in the 6 games played in the league that have not been brilliant, the former Atletico Madrid player could return to the Spanish capital.

Not under the guidance of Simeone, however, but on the other side.

In fact, there have been rumors for some time of interest from Ancelotti’s Real: market rumors that have not left Hermoso indifferent at all, as he appears more than ready to listen to the possible advancement of the Blancos’ offer.
