Lorenzo Venturino’s growth is there for all to see. Arriving in the January transfer window, the young attacking winger is accelerating and, little by little, carving out a more concrete place for himself at Roma.
So far, Gian Piero Gasperini has used him exclusively on a game-by-game basis, but he’s received encouraging signs in terms of his impact and attitude.
The prolonged absences of Paulo Dybala and Matías Soulé have inevitably reshuffled the attacking hierarchy, and Venturino has taken advantage, rising in the coaching staff’s evaluations.
Born in 2006, he has shown personality, resourcefulness, and a certain ability to make an impact even in challenging situations.
According to La Repubblica, ahead of the match against Juventus, the possibility of him starting is no longer just a suggestion.
Gasperini is seriously considering this option, with Venturino vying for a starting spot with Bryan Zaragoza.
The discussion remains open, but the young former Genoa player—arrived on loan with an option to buy—has already proven himself to be a credible asset. In a crucial phase of the season, where Roma are seeking pace, unpredictability, and freshness to sustain the pressure of the Champions League race, Venturino could become an unexpected asset.
And Sunday’s big match could be the perfect opportunity to confirm this.
