Roma declines to sign free agents Raphaël Guerreiro and Jadon Sancho
Summary

Roma management has decided against signing free agents Raphaël Guerreiro and Jadon Sancho despite both players being offered to the club. Gian Piero Gasperini did not approve the addition of Guerreiro following his departure from Bayern Munich. The club also passed on a potential move for Jadon Sancho, citing concerns over the player's current physical condition and the time required for him to reach full competitive form. Roma intends to abstain from further free agent signings to avoid rushing squad adjustments. The Giallorossi will now focus their recruitment strategy on the upcoming January transfer window to address specific needs, including the search for an attacking winger.
