Manu Kone: The beginning of his 2026 World Cup adventure
Roma midfielder Manu Kone is attracting huge interest in the transfer market as he prepares to feature for France in the 2026 World Cup.
Roma midfielder Manu Kuné is one of the prominent names that attracts the interest of clubs in every transfer window. Roma are aiming to achieve profits of around €50 million, and Kone is considered a valuable asset that can help the club achieve its financial targets required by UEFA.
Teams are increasingly seeking his services, with Inter Milan's interest declining, while clubs such as Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain are closely monitoring the player's situation, preparing to make attractive offers. Despite this increased interest, Roma's policy remains clear: to retain its key players and launch them into next season.

On the other hand, Kone preferred to stay away from any talk related to transfers during the France national team camp. In a previous press conference, the young star, who wears the number 17, said: “It's the World Cup, it's my first major tournament. I prefer to focus on that and then we will see what the future holds for me.”
The French team's trip to the United States will begin this evening at 21:00 Mecca time, where the team will face its Senegalese counterpart in the first round of Group A. Kone is expected to start the match from the bench, with Chouamini and Rabiot both preferred to start in midfield, but he is ready to get his chance and make his mark in his first World Cup appearance.
Roma will also be watching the French national team's progress with interest, as an outstanding performance in the tournament may increase Kone's value and attract the interest of other clubs. This scenario would be satisfactory for Roma financially, but at the same time it would make it difficult to keep him at the Trigoria Stadium.
