Alessio Riccardi joins Pescara on loan

The 19-year-old joins the Abruzzo side on a season-long deal that runs until 30 June 2021.

As part of the agreement, Pescara have the option to make the transfer permanent. In this instance, Roma will retain a buy-back option on the player.

A graduate of the club's academy setup, Riccardi has made one senior appearance for Roma - coming on as a second half substitute in a Coppa Italia win against Virtus Entella in January 2019.

The club would like to wish Riccardi the best of luck for this new challenge.
