Roma Set to Sign Porto Winger Rodrigo Mora in €25 Million Transfer with €120 Million Release Clause

Roma are close to finalizing a €25 million deal to sign winger Rodrigo Mora from Porto. The 19-year-old, highly regarded for his potential, will join the Italian club under a contract that includes an extraordinary €120 million release clause.

Negotiations Reach Crucial Stage

After intensive discussions, the two clubs have overcome the last obstacles. Reports from Corriere dello Sport reveal that Roma is in the process of ironing out final details, signaling the imminent arrival of the young Portuguese talent in Rome.

The breakthrough came thanks to persistent efforts by Roma’s manager Gian Piero Gasperini and direct involvement from the Friedkin family, who own the club. Their pressure was key in pushing the transfer forward.

Deal Details and Release Clause

The transfer fee is set at €25 million, with Porto securing a percentage from any future resale. Most striking is the €120 million release clause included in the contract, emphasizing how both Porto and Roma value Mora's promising abilities.

Porto president Andre Villas-Boas collaborated closely with intermediaries to finalize the agreement. Both sides resolved earlier disagreements to ensure a smooth handover of the player.

Strengthening Roma's Attack

Mora joins as a key addition to Roma’s attacking options. Coach Gian Piero Gasperini has been eager to inject more creativity and energy into the squad's offense. The youngster's technical skills and tactical flexibility align well with the team’s style of play.

Adding promising young players fits Roma’s approach as they aim to compete strongly in both domestic and European competitions. Mora’s signing is expected to bring fresh vitality to the team.

Final Steps Before Completion

With contractual terms agreed upon, Mora is expected to arrive in Rome soon for medical examinations before officially signing a long-term contract. This move is one of the most talked-about transfers this summer in Serie A.

Fans at Stadio Olimpico are eagerly anticipating the debut of the new winger, hoping he will make a significant impact.
