AS Roma Sets Sights on Nayef Aguerd for Key Summer Transfer
Rabat – Nayef Aguerd, the 29-year-old Moroccan central defender currently contracted to West Ham United, is entering a critical phase in his career this summer. After a strong season on loan at Real Sociedad, Aguerd has caught the attention of several major European clubs, with AS Roma leading the chase. According to multiple Italian media outlets, AS Roma has made Aguerd a top priority to strengthen their defense. The club's new sporting director, Frédéric Massara, views Aguerd as the perfect fit to bolster Roma's backline. Reports indicate that Roma has already submitted an initial offer to West Ham . However, the capital club faces stiff competition, notably from Juventus, which is reportedly in advanced talks with West Ham to secure the Moroccan international. Marseille is also interested in the defender, but the French club's preference for a loan deal, driven by financial constraints, places them at a disadvantage compared to the Italian sides ready to make a full investment. During the recent season, Aguerd featured in 36 matches across La Liga, Copa del Rey, and the Europa League for Real Sociedad . Known for his physical presence as well as his ability to build play from the back, Aguerd remains a key player for Morocco's Atlas Lions, with over 55 international caps. Other clubs such as Bayer Leverkusen and Atlético Madrid have also shown interest, keeping the competition fierce. The coming weeks are expected to be decisive for Aguerd's future, as Europe's top clubs vie for the talented defender who emerged from the Mohammed VI Academy.

For Real Madrid, Sunday night is about reasserting their place at the top. For Pachuca, it may be a night of survival. Predicted lineups: Real Madrid are likely to have a strong starting XI despite Kylian Mbappe's doubtful presence. Should he be sidelined, Rodrygo shall be expected to partner with Vinicius Jr in the attack alongside Gonzalo Garcia. Xabi Alonso is expected to start Thibaut Courtois in goal, alongside new signings Alexander Arnold and Huisjen, Asencio, and F Garcia on the defensive line. Valverde, Tchouameni, and Bellingham will run the midfield. Rodrygo, Vinicius, and G Garcia to lead the attack. Pachuca, on the other hand, are expected to go with a more conservative 4-3-3 formation, starting Moren in goal. Rodriguez, Bauermann, Pereira, and Gonzalez in defense. Montiel, Pedraza, and Palavecino in midfield. Dominguez, Rondon, and Kenedy on the frontline. Score Prediction: With Real Madrid's experience, tactical edge, and the psychological advantage from past victories, a clean win feels not only possible, but inevitable. Pachuca will have to dig deep to avoid a repeat of last year's shutout. MWN is expecting a comfortable 2-0 win for Los Blancos. Tags: Barcelona vs Real Madrid
