AS Roma has completed its second signing of the season: Konstantinos Koulierakis will land in Rome tomorrow to undergo his medical. The 24-year-old Greek defender joins from Wolfsburg for a fee of €16.5 million plus €1.5 million in bonuses and a 20% sell-on clause.

What happened?

Yesterday afternoon, Roma and Wolfsburg finalized the last details of the deal. As reported by Filippo Biafora, Koulierakis will arrive at Ciampino Airport tomorrow at 12:30 p.m., then head to the Campus for his medical. Once the paperwork is complete, he will fly to Wales to join the Giallorossi’s training camp starting Sunday.

Why does this matter for AS Roma?

The club, which finished 3rd in Serie A last season with 73 points (23 wins, 4 draws, 11 losses), sees Koulierakis as a key addition to strengthen the defense. With 59 goals scored and 31 conceded (+28 goal difference) and a 5-game winning streak (last result: Hellas Verona 0-2 AS Roma on May 24, 2026), De Rossi’s side aims for consistency heading into the new campaign.

What’s next?

After the medical, the player will sign his contract and immediately join the squad in pre-season. The transfer, already agreed in financial terms, signals Roma’s clear ambitions for the upcoming season, having finished 14 points behind leaders Inter last term.
