Roma targets Solet from Udinese as Hummels replacement

AS Roma is looking to improve their defense for the upcoming summer transfer window. The team plans to replace Mats Hummels, who is expected to leave the club at the end of this season. Along with Leonardo Balerdi from Marseille, Roma is considering Oumar Solet. Solet is a French center-back who recently joined Udinese and has quickly made an impact with his strong defensive play and skill in starting attacks. Solet is also attracting interest from Napoli. Udinese values him at over 15 million euros, and this price could increase if he continues to perform well. Roma's sporting director, Florent Ghisolfi, is hoping to sign Solet. Two years ago, Roma's general manager, Tiago Pinto, attempted to bring Solet to the club but was unsuccessful. Now, they are looking to make a renewed effort to strengthen their defense.
