The defeat in the derby, the elimination from the Coppa Italia, the 3-0 assigned against Spezia. From the results point of view, Roma's last week was not calm, as well as some relations between the coach and the players. Above all, Edin Dzeko. Behind tomorrow's exclusion from the match against Spezia (this time in Serie A) there is not only a physical reason but also a 'tear' with Fonseca. Disciplinary reasons also expressed yesterday in front of the whole team. A contrast between the Bosnian and the Portuguese coach, which has been the subject of long discussions in the locker room, between the coach, players, and then also managers. The match against Spezia will be decisive for whether or not Fonseca remains on the bench, and if the Portuguese were to be relieved of his job (in the event of a defeat, therefore), the problem would not subsist. Otherwise, it needs to be seen how to continue. And here the Dzeko case could be reflected on the outgoing market of Rome.
The situation and possible repercussions on the market:
For the striker, there has been no concrete interest by other clubs. Notwithstanding the need to find a solution that suits both Roma and the player, West Ham and Wolverhampton for example would not be in the range of teams that Edin would go to. In Italy, Juventus - immediately linked to the Bosnian - doesn't seem interested, on the contrary. Both for economic reasons and for conceptual reasons: the bianconeri are looking for a second Striker, perhaps as young as Scamacca. But only on loan or with an exchange. So, with these assumptions, there are currently no conditions to open negotiations with Roma as in the summer, before Morata arrived.
Other top European clubs who would gladly take Dzeko, to date either do not have the possibility to meet the price requirements or they should first get someone else out. So either they opt for an exchange with a player liked by Roma or the farewell scenario is difficult.
