Roma's renewal push for Pellegrini: deadline looms as free agent

Lorenzo Pellegrini, Roma’s number 7, remains a free agent as he awaits a contract renewal with the Giallorossi. He is slated to join the squad in Trigoria on July 13 for the pre‑season training camp, with an agreement expected in the coming hours.

Pellegrini’s agent has already held an initial meeting with club director D’Amico. Both sides continue to negotiate, maintaining contact as they work toward a final agreement.

Coach Gasperini has publicly requested that Pellegrini’s contract be extended, underscoring the midfielder’s importance to the side. The Italian international’s role in the midfield makes him a key figure for the Giallorossi’s tactical plans.

Despite interest from several other clubs, Pellegrini has consistently placed Roma at the top of his priorities. His loyalty adds pressure on the club to finalize terms quickly.

A further meeting with D’Amico is set for tomorrow or Tuesday to bridge the remaining gap. Securing the renewal will give Pellegrini stability for the upcoming season while allowing Roma to retain a pivotal midfielder.
