LATEST NEWS CALCIOMERCATO ROMA – The future of Alexis Saelemaekers is increasingly a market puzzle. Having arrived at Roma last summer, the Belgian quickly established himself as a key player in the Giallorossi’s locker room, winning over Ranieri and earning the trust of a public that has appreciated his steady growth. Now, however, his stay in the capital is far from a foregone conclusion: AC Milan, which owns his card, sniffs out the deal and several Premier League clubs have already knocked on the player’s door.
Un valore in ascesa
If in September the price of Saelemaekers seemed affordable, today the scenario has completely changed. His performances have doubled his market value, and Milan wants to monetize as much as possible from a permanent transfer. The Rossoneri have never considered him an indispensable element and now see an opportunity to cash in without even considering exchange hypotheses, such as the one with Tammy Abraham advanced by Roma in recent weeks.
Roma in pressing, ma occhio alla Premier
Roma would not want to let him get away. Ranieri and Ghisolfi have identified the class of ’99 as an important building block for the future and are banking on the player’s willingness to convince AC Milan to a reasonable negotiation. But the competition is growing fierce: Nottingham Forest and Newcastle are closely watching the situation and would be ready to put a major offer on the table to snatch Saelemaekers from Roma. The appeal of the Premier League and the prospect of a higher salary could be a heavy obstacle to the Giallorossi’s strategy.
Il fattore volontà: la carta vincente della Roma?
If Roma still has a hope of retaining him, it comes down to the player’s will. Saelemaekers is doing well in the capital, has found continuity and is finally back on the Belgian national team’s roster, thanks in part to the appreciation of coach Rudi Garcia. The two appearances against Ukraine were an important signal for a player who has not worn the Belgium jersey since 2023 and who now dreams of being a protagonist at the international level as well. Ranieri and Ghisolfi will have to work on the player’s conviction to avoid losing him, but the game is far from closed. With the Premier League in the window and Milan ready to maximize profit, Saelemaekers future remains shrouded in uncertainty.
