Gervinho Linked with €14m Move to Al Jazira Amid Roma Struggles
Ivorian forward Gervinho could be on his way out of AS Roma at the end of the season, with reports suggesting a big-money offer has arrived from the United Arab Emirates.
According to Sky Sports Italia, UAE club Al Jazira—currently second in their domestic league and home to former Roma striker Mirko Vučinić—have tabled a concrete bid of €14 million for the 27-year-old attacker.
The move comes as Gervinho endures a difficult spell in the Italian capital. After initially impressing under manager Rudi Garcia, the Ivorian’s form has dipped, and his role in the squad appears increasingly uncertain.
The reported offer could be tempting for both player and club. Roma signed Gervinho from Arsenal for €8 million nearly two years ago, and a sale at nearly double that figure would represent significant profit.
For Gervinho, a move to Al Jazira could offer both a fresh start and a lucrative contract at a key stage in his career.
No official decision has been made, but talks are expected to accelerate in the coming weeks as Roma prepare for an important summer of changes.
