Roma are engaged in negotiations with Rennes to secure the services of Lorenz Assignon and look to be making progress in their talks. The Italian club initially proposed a loan with an option to buy, but this offer was rejected by Rennes, the club currently holding Assignon’s contract.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, recent discussions between the two clubs have led to a breakthrough, with Rennes now open to a loan deal that includes an obligation to purchase, contingent upon Assignon meeting a minimum number of appearances. This development has prompted Roma to consider restructuring their offer to align with Rennes’ conditions, which could facilitate the completion of the transfer.
As talks continue, both clubs are working towards reaching a mutual agreement that would see the young French right-back join Roma. The negotiations are a key part of Roma’s strategy to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season, and the club is hopeful of finalizing the deal soon.
