It's official: Roma signed Uruguayan international Matthias Wiener for 13 million euros

On August 8, Rome officially announced the signing of Uruguayan international Matthias Wiener from Palmeiras for 13 million euros.

The official content is as follows:

Wiener, who joined from Palmeiras, is 23 years old and is the team's third signing this summer. The left-back's initial transfer fee is €13 million, with other terms, and Palmeiras will also receive a percentage of his income if the player is sold. Wiener's contract with the team expires on June 30, 2026.

Wiener said: "I'm delighted to be needed by a big team like Roma. I wanted to play in Europe when I was very young, and I'm very proud to be able to wear the Roma shirt to realize my dream. I couldn't wait to join my coaches, teammates and rush to our fans on the pitch. ”

The dynamic left-back likes to play forward and can contribute when attacking. He has made five appearances for Uruguay during the Copa America and currently has 16 appearances for the national team. At the club he also achieved results, winning the league with Uruguayan Naça in 2019 and the Copa Libertadores with Palmeiras in 2020.

Club manager Pinto said: "Wiener's arrival allows us to get promoted and in the case of Spinazzola's injury, he can make up for our gap in the best way. He was only 23 years old and had already won trophies in Uruguay and Brazil, including the Copa Libertadores and The Copa do Brasil. He is a player with the mental attributes to win, and he has a lot of potential to improve in the future. ”

Wiener is another signing after Patricio and Shomurodov, who will wear the no. 5 shirt in the new season and welcome Matthias!
