Galatasaray’s defensive stalwart Victor Nelsson is on the verge of completing a move to Serie A side AS Roma.
Reports indicate that both clubs have reached a preliminary agreement, with Nelsson also giving the green light to the transfer.
Renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed that negotiations between AS Roma and Galatasaray have concluded positively, paving the way for the deal to be finalized.
The Danish center-back has already agreed to personal terms, and official signatures are expected in the coming hours. Only the final paperwork and official statements remain before the transfer is completed.
Victor Nelsson, who joined Galatasaray from FC Copenhagen in 2021, quickly became a key figure in the team’s defense. Known for his leadership at the back and ability to score crucial goals, he played a vital role in Galatasaray’s recent successes.
His performances last season in the Süper Lig attracted interest from top European clubs, ultimately leading to Roma’s pursuit.
During the current campaign, Nelsson featured in 18 official matches for Galatasaray, accumulating a total of 616 minutes on the pitch.
Despite his limited playing time, the Danish defender remained a crucial squad member.
With this transfer, AS Roma is set to bolster its defensive options as they aim for success in Serie A and European competitions.
Nelsson’s arrival could provide the defensive stability the Italian club has been seeking. An official announcement from both clubs is expected soon.
