Mario Hermoso is reportedly engaged in advanced negotiations to extend his contract with Roma for up to three more years, as he is set to become a free agent at the end of this season.

Currently, Hermoso’s contract is set to expire in June 2026, but Sky Sport Italia reporter Angelo Mangiante has indicated that the discussions for a contract extension are progressing well.
The new deal is anticipated to last for two years, with an option for an additional year, and it could be finalized as soon as next month.
A product of the Real Madrid youth academy, Hermoso gained recognition at Real Valladolid, Espanyol, and notably Atletico Madrid, where he played for five years.
