Santiago Castro set to join Roma from Bologna for €30 million
Summary

Roma and Bologna have agreed on a transfer for forward Santiago Castro, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. The deal, valued at approximately €30 million, is expected to be finalized shortly. Roma's transfer window has faced challenges, including a failed attempt to sign Mason Greenwood. Castro, a 21-year-old center-forward, brings versatility but will likely compete for playing time behind Donyell Malen. He recorded 11 goals in 51 matches last season and is seen as a valuable addition as Roma prepares for their return to the Champions League.
