Liverpool is closely monitoring Wesley França, a 23-year-old Brazilian right-back who belongs to Roma, with a view to a possible signing in the upcoming transfer windows. As reported by journalist Ekrem Konur, the English club has included the defender among its targets, although the Italian club is not considering letting him go. The operation is being considered as one of the possibilities in Liverpool's transfers to strengthen their defense.

The player joined Roma in July 2025 from Flamengo for a transfer fee of 25 million euros fixed plus five million in variables. His adaptation to Italian football has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal and Tottenham.

However, the team led by Gian Piero Gasperini is in a favorable position to negotiate. Wesley is under contract until June 30, 2030, so the Italian club is not under pressure to consider offers during the next winter transfer window.

Liverpool shows interest in Wesley to strengthen their right-back position

Liverpool sees the Brazilian as an option to enhance their defensive choices. The English sports management has been closely monitoring his progress for months, especially since he started getting regular minutes in Serie A.

The interest is not exclusive to Anfield. Arsenal and Tottenham have also sent scouts to analyze his performances, as reported in England. Competition could complicate potential negotiations if multiple clubs decide to make offers.

Wesley has established himself in Gasperini's plans, who often employs systems with three center-backs and wing-backs. His ability to cover the right flank allows him to contribute both in ball distribution and offensive actions.

During his first season in Italy, the player participated in 39 official matches, scoring five goals and providing two assists. These stats explain his significance within the Italian coach's system.

At the beginning of the 2026/27 season, the defender has maintained his spot in the team and has already recorded one assist. His performance has also kept him in contention for the Brazilian national team.

Roma complicates Liverpool's plans with a contract until 2030

The main hurdle for Liverpool is Roma's refusal to negotiate the Brazilian's departure. The Italian club deems the full-back as a key element in their long-term planning and intends to retain him for the coming seasons.

The investment made in 2025 also influences any potential negotiations. Roma committed up to 30 million euros to acquire him from Flamengo, indicating no intentions to part ways with the player just over a year after his arrival.

His valuation has risen since then. According to the latest assessment on Transfermarkt, the Brazilian is valued at 40 million euros, although this figure does not represent an official sale evaluation by Roma.

Liverpool has not submitted a confirmed formal offer yet. Currently, the interest remains at a monitoring stage, with no public discussions between the two clubs regarding the terms of a potential transfer.

The next step depends on whether the English club decides to transform this monitoring into a proposal during January 2027. Liverpool will need to persuade a Roma that is not in urgent need to sell and has a four-year contract to secure the continuation of their full-back.
