Roma sporting director Florent Ghisolfi flies on mission to Milan to discuss futures of Lorenzo Pellegrini and Nicola Zalewski with Inter

The Giallorossi aim to continue making progress next season since the immense improvement under coach Claudio Ranieri at the helm of the capital side as Roma sporting director Florent Ghisolfi travels to Milan to hold transfer talks with league-leaders Inter.

Il Romanista, via ForzaRomaInfo, reports that Ghisolfi is set to discuss idea of making Nicola Zalewski’s loan to the Nerazzurri a permanent transfer at the end of the season.

To date, the Polish international has been very impressive since arriving in the transfer window and his displays have heavily convinced the Beneamata that the 23-year-old could emerge as a vital asset.

Consequently, Inter are prepared to offer Zalewski a long-term contract until 2029 and are leaning towards paying the Giallorossi the €6m option to buy attached to the six-month loan worth a fee of €600k.

In addition, Ghisolfi is looking to possibly persuade Inter in purchasing central midfielder Lorenzo Pellegrini as despite being their skipper, the capital club are set to offload their boyhood Giallorossi play-maker, hence his poor run of form of two goals and one assist in 23 appearances in the 2024/25 Serie A campaign.

With the 28-year-old’s contract expiring in 2026, Roma are seeking to offload the player this summer to avoid losing the Italian international on a free transfer when his contract expires.
