AS Roma is almost finalizing Celik's contract extension; discussions with Pellegrini are ongoing
AS Roma is on the eve of a contract extension for Celik. Positive discussions are also taking place with Pellegrini for a new contract. Roma not only focuses on incoming transfers, but also on stability within the selection.
At AS Roma, the focus this summer is not only on major transfer deals, but is also working hard to retain core players. According to Italian media, the contract extension of Turkish defender Celik has almost been completed. The club management recently managed to bridge the salary difference, which initially amounted to around 600,000 euros. Only a few formal details separate Roma and Celik from signing the new contract.
Celik, who is currently playing with the Turkey national team at the World Cup, is appreciated within the club for his versatility and commitment. The satisfaction with his performance is evident from the smooth negotiations and the fact that the coaching staff and management unanimously support the extension.

In addition to Celik, Roma also wants to retain captain Lorenzo Pellegrini for longer. The discussions with the midfielder's entourage are led by the new technical director D'Amico. The first introductions are positive and both parties are optimistic about a successful conclusion. However, there are still some hurdles to overcome before a final agreement can be reached.
Roma attaches great importance to contract extensions for basic players such as Dybala, Mancini, Celik and Pellegrini, in order to guarantee the stability and continuity of the team.
