The Friedkin family was very unlucky after the acquisition of Rome, and the epidemic completely disrupted the development of the Roma club, making the already highly indebted Roma even worse, with a record loss of 204 million euros in just 20-21 seasons. Recently, the official announcement of the Roma club showed that the Friedkin family has injected 10 million euros into the club. The Friedkin family has invested 359 million euros in Rome, and despite these injections, Rome is still in debt of 353 million euros by the end of March this year. Fortunately, the arrival of Mourinho activated Roma's ball market, and Roma also cleaned up high-paying contracts such as Pastore, Pedro, and Nzonzi, so that Roma could stop the loss in time and barely make ends meet. Given Roma's poor financial situation, the money left for Mourinho this summer window will be very limited, and the team can only be transformed by selling players one way.
The most difficult issue now facing Roma is the renewal of Zagnolo's contract, Zagnolo has great potential, but given his glassy physique, his development is also full of uncertainty, in addition, his playing style is very unique, although he has a certain ability to break through with the ball, but also incompatible with Mourinho's emphasis on the quick outing of the counter-attack. For now, Roma seem reluctant to meet his high-paying contract renewal requirements, with even the club's director bluntly saying that he cannot guarantee whether Zaniolo will still be a Roma player next season. Zaniolo is currently worth around €50 million, but there aren't many clubs interested in him at the moment, only Juventus, bidding 30 million, which is also far below Roma's expectations, leaving Roma in a dilemma. The other is Abraham's problem, after a season of training by Mourinho, Abraham has improved rapidly, due to the scarcity of high-end strikers in the market now, Arsenal, eager to buy a striker, is very eager to buy him in the summer window, he is currently worth around 60 million euros, if he can get a higher offer, the debt-ridden Roma may also sell him.
In addition to the sale of players, the European Cup has also become another source of income for Roma, at present Roma has half a foot into the threshold of the final, if they can successfully win the European Cup, counting the ticket revenue and prize money, Roma will accumulate 50 million euros of income from this event, and this money may also be used to repay the club's debts, after all, the club's top priority is to survive first. If nothing else, Roma's reinforcements in the summer window will be very limited, it is likely to give up the buyout of The Golden Chain and Oliveira, and put the limited funds back into the reinforcements of these two positions, the probability of entering the Champions League next season will not be too high, where should Mourinho go?
