Justin Njinmah was on the verge of transferring to AS Roma in Serie A at the end of January. 'Bild' reported that the transfer did not go through because of a two million euro discrepancy. Werder Bremen had set the transfer fee at twelve million euros, whereas AS Roma's offer was only ten million euros. Moreover, Werder Bremen assessed the risk of finding a suitable replacement as too high with the transfer window's imminent closure. Presently, the interest from Rome has waned. Njinmah remains contracted with Bremen until 2027 and has recently been primarily a substitute under coach Ole Werner.
