According to "Football Italy", both Roma and Bologna are interested in signing young English star Jonathan Rowe, a player for Marseille and the England U21 team.

Roma is looking to strengthen its attack before the summer transfer window closes and is negotiating with Aston Villa to sign Leon Bailey, but the failure of the Jadon Sancho deal has led the team to consider other alternatives like Rowe from Marseille.

On the other hand, Bologna is seeking to finalize a deal with Marseille to acquire the former Norwich City player, but Bologna has not yet received Rowe's personal approval for the transfer, according to reports.

Jonathan Rowe had a 2024/2025 season with Marseille on loan, scoring 3 goals in 28 matches in Ligue 1, and his contract was converted to a permanent one for 15 million euros including bonuses. Reports suggest that Bologna may need to make an offer of 20 million euros to convince Marseille to sell.
