Antonio Nusa denies AS Roma transfer rumors RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa has denied rumors linking him with a move to AS Roma, reaffirming his commitment to the Bundesliga club. In an interview with Sky Sport Germany, the 21-year-old stated: 'I never made any request to leave Leipzig.' ## What happened? Nusa has been at the center of transfer speculation in recent months, with AS Roma reportedly interested. However, the player clarified that he has not requested a transfer and is focused on his future with Leipzig. 'Rumors are always rumors, and they can write whatever they want. I've just been relaxing on vacation, and now I'm here,' he added. ## Why it matters for AS Roma With AS Roma finishing the 2025 season in sixth place in Serie A with 58 points (18 wins, 4 draws, 11 losses), the search for reinforcements for the next season is crucial. However, Nusa's statements indicate that the player is not available for a transfer, at least for now. ## What comes next? Leipzig is working to reduce their squad, and Nusa could have a more significant role in the next season, especially after Yan Diomande's departure to Real Madrid. With 46 goals scored and 29 conceded in the 2025 season, AS Roma will need to continue looking for reinforcements to compete at their best. The next match for the Giallorossi is scheduled for February 14, 2027, against Parma.
