Roma see €8m bid rejected for Wolves left-back as Tsimikas nears Liverpool return – Football Italia

Monday’s reports claim that Wolverhampton Wanderers have rejected a bid from Roma for left-back David Møller Wolfe, as the Giallorossi seek a potential replacement for Kostas Tsimikas, who could return to Liverpool ahead of schedule. 

Roma discussing Premier League full-backs with Wolves and Liverpool

According to reports from various outlets including Fabrizio Romano, Roma have opened negotiations over a permanent deal for Wolves full-back Wolfe, who has made 18 appearances for the Norway national team since 2023. 

Updates from Ben Jacobs indicate that Wolves have turned down the opening bid from the Giallorossi, which is said to be in the region of €8m. 

Wolves reportedly paid a fee of around €11.5m (£10m) potentially rising to just shy of €14m (£12.1m) to sign Wolfe from AZ Alkmaar during the summer transfer window. 

The 23-year-old has struggled to nail down a place in Wolves’s starting line-up since then, though, and has played for just three minutes across the last five Premier League matches, remaining as an unused substitute for the last three. 

Roma are on the lookout for a new left-sided wing-back to replace Kostas Tsimikas, who seems increasingly likely to return to Liverpool after an underwhelming loan spell in the Italian capital in 2025-26. 

Roma director Ricky Massara confirmed on Sunday that “we are in a dialogue with Liverpool” over a potential termination of Tsimikas’s loan deal, and that “we’ll see how that evolves over the next few days.”
