Roma finalizes agreement for D’Amico to join as sporting director

Roma has resolved the departure of Tony D’Amico from Atalanta, with his appointment as the new sporting director expected to be announced within the next 24 hours. This move comes after Roma parted ways with Frederic Massara. Among D’Amico's immediate tasks will be handling expiring contracts for players, including Celik, Pellegrini, and Dybala, as well as negotiating a contract renewal for Gianluca Mancini. Roma aims to have D’Amico operational immediately, though he is slated to officially join the club on July 1. The Friedkin family has stated they do not intend to pay compensation to Atalanta for D’Amico’s release.
