After a final acceleration and push for Pastore and the operation of Nainggolan to Inter nearing its conclusion, Roma now look towards Swedish attacker Emil Forsberg of RB Leipzig.
A player who has come off a season in which he had 33 appearances with 5 goals and 4 assists in the Bundesliga, Forsberg is now in Russia playing for his nation of Sweden. He started on the left wing in the 1-0 victory over South Korea in the first group stage match, and he looks to play a large role in the squad if they are to have success.
The Giallorossi are observing him closely in this competition, and have now added him to the list of possible reinforcements for Di Francesco's attack, however Roma must first sell off one of their current players if there is to be a deal for Forsberg.
