AS Roma has officially announced the signing of promising young forward Robinio Vaz from Marseille on a permanent transfer. The deal, confirmed by the French club, is valued at €25 million, which includes add-ons, along with a 10 percent share of any future sale fee.

Contract Details and Player Background

The 18-year-old striker has signed a four-year contract that will keep him at Roma until June 2030. Vaz arrives in the Italian capital after establishing himself as one of the most exciting attacking talents in France. He made his senior debut under coach Roberto De Zerbi in January 2025 during a Coupe de France match against Lille and subsequently made his Ligue 1 debut later that same season. This year, he has also gained valuable experience in the Champions League.

Performance and Expectations

During his time at Marseille, Vaz made a total of 22 senior appearances across all competitions, scoring four goals, which has further solidified his status as one of France's standout Under-20 prospects. Roma views this acquisition as a long-term investment, aiming to foster his development as part of the club's youth-oriented strategy. For his time at Roma, Vaz has chosen to wear the No. 78 shirt.

In concluding their announcement, Roma extended a warm welcome to their new signing, stating, “Welcome to Rome, Robinio.”
