Roma have released their balance sheet for the first nine months of the season, showing a net debt of €278.5m.

The figure is almost €60m up from Roma's
financial statement ending June 30 of last year.

The coronavirus pandemic, subsequent lost revenue and breakdown in takeover talks with Dan Friedkin are believed to be the causes.

The situation has also forced the club to call another shareholders meeting on June 26.
