Matías Soulé has returned to Italy with his future completely open. The Argentine forward is one of the best players at AS Roma and will join the preseason in the coming days, but his first words upon landing in the capital made it clear that he cannot guarantee his continuity during this transfer window.

The footballer expressed satisfaction for qualifying for the Champions League, although he avoided publicly committing to the project. His response has strengthened a possibility that was already being considered in Trigoria: accepting a significant sale to generate resources and balance the books.

Matías Soulé attracts interest from two Premier League clubs

According to 'Corriere dello Sport', the most concrete interest comes from England. Sunderland and Fulham have contacted Martin Guastadisegno, Matías Soulé's agent, to learn about his conditions and consider making a formal offer in the coming weeks.

Sunderland also has a differentiating factor. Florent Ghisolfi, the current sporting director of the English club, was the one who promoted his arrival in Roma in 2024 and knows perfectly well his qualities, environment, and the potential for further growth he still possesses.

AS Roma does not deem the winger non-transferable, but they also do not intend to lower their price. The sports management is asking for around 35 million euros, a sum in line with his current market value and the potential of a player who is only 23 years old.

Soulé has a contract until 30th June 2029. During the last season, he played in 33 Serie A matches, scored six goals, and maintained a relevant role in the offensive rotation, although he lost impact during the second half of the season.

AS Roma seeks capital gains with Matías Soulé

The economic dimension is essential to understand the operation. The remaining value to be amortized in the club's accounts is around 15.5 million euros, so a sale close to 35 million euros would leave an approximate capital gain of 20 to 21 million.

The capital team paid 25.6 million euros fixed plus 4 million euros in variables to Juventus for his signing. Additionally, the Turin team retains 10% of a future sale, a percentage that will also condition the final benefit of the operation.

Saudi Arabia remains interested in the Argentine

Al-Ahli and Al Hilal emerge as alternatives capable of offering much higher salary conditions. However, recent reports indicate that the forward has prioritized continuing in Europe and competing at the highest level rather than accepting a move to Arabia.

The Premier League now seems the most attractive destination. His talent for receiving between the lines, dribbling with his left foot, and acting as a winger, attacking midfielder, or second striker fits well in a league that rewards speed and offensive creativity.

For Roma, letting go of a promising player would mean a sporting sacrifice, but it would also provide liquidity to enter the market. Tony D'Amico needs room to pursue new goals and demonstrate compliance with UEFA's financial parameters.

The decision will not be immediate. The Argentine will start preseason training while his agent reviews proposals and the interested clubs decide whether they will meet the valuation set by the capital entity.

After two seasons in Italy, Matías Soulé finds himself at a crossroads marked by financial needs. If Sunderland, Fulham, or any Saudi contender exceeds the 35 million euros barrier, Matías Soulé's time in Serie A could come to an end.
