Roma Loans Angelino to Deportivo La Coruna with Purchase Option
Roma has officially completed the loan of Angelino to Deportivo La Coruna, a move that includes a purchase option reportedly valued at €2.5 million.
The left-back was not part of coach Gian Piero Gasperini's strategic plans and saw limited playing time last season due to illness.
Angelino successfully passed his medical examinations today, and Roma confirmed the transfer through an official statement, specifying it as a loan deal with an option to buy at the conclusion of the season.
According to reports from Sky Sport Italia and other outlets, the loan itself is free, with the option to purchase the player set at €2.5 million.
Angelino's Roma Career Hindered by Illness
The 29-year-old initially joined Roma on loan from RB Leipzig in January 2024, with the transfer later made permanent six months later for a fee of €5.4 million.
Angelino scored a total of four goals in 80 competitive appearances for the club. However, his progress was significantly impacted by a severe case of asthmatic bronchitis diagnosed in October 2025.
This condition made regular training extremely challenging due to its effect on his breathing, resulting in him making only nine appearances last season.
