Report: Dan and Ryan Friedkin played crucial role in Artem Dovbyk’s decision to join Roma

The Friedkins were once again involved in an important signing for Roma.

Four years into their tenure at the capital club, the American businessmen proved once more how important they can be for the long-term success of the Giallorossi.

The latest example of the Friedkins’ dedication to Roma’s transfer business pertains to the deal for Artem Dovbyk.

The Ukrainian striker will arrive to Rome later today where he will sign a 5-year deal with Roma for a total fee of 38.5 million euros.

In the meantime, calciomercato.com relates how the Friedkins’ intervention was also decisive in negotiations with the player and Girona.

Dan and Ryan spoke with the player in recent days and convinced him to choose Roma. Artem immediately said yes to the Giallorossi.

Dan Friedkin has excellent relations with the City Group and has had close contact with Ferran Soriano (CEO of the group that owns Girona), reports the news portal.

This was the key to closing the deal. The Giallorossi presidents followed the negotiation step by step, remaining in contact with the player and Roma managers. This is another great investment by the Friedkins.
