AS Roma is in active negotiations with Bologna to sign Argentine striker Santiago Castro, valued at 40 million euros including bonuses, while the Roman club is offering between 30 and 32 million euros with performance-related add-ons. At 21 years old, Castro joined Bologna in January 2024 from Vélez Sarsfield for approximately 10 million euros and is contracted until June 2030, which significantly strengthens the Italian club’s negotiating leverage. Juventus and AC Milan have also expressed interest in the player, complicating AS Roma’s position in these negotiations. AS Roma’s fan token, ASR, could be influenced by the outcome of this transfer, as a 30 to 40 million euro investment in a young, high-ceiling striker would signal the club’s ambition to compete at the highest level, a signal likely to fuel speculative interest in the fan token.
