Roma winger Wesley has quickly embraced Italian culture, attempting to master the local cuisine less than a year after his move from Flamengo, according to a report from La Gazzetta Dello Sport.
The Brazilian international joined the Serie A club in May of 2025, seeking a new challenge in European football. Wesley arrived in Rome with a reputation as a dynamic and skillful attacker, having impressed during his time in Brazil with Flamengo. He has featured regularly for Roma this season, contributing with pace and creativity on the wing.
While details of the transfer fee were not disclosed at the time of the move, Wesley’s arrival was seen as a significant coup for the club, bolstering their attacking options. He has integrated into the team well, becoming a popular figure both on and off the pitch.
The Gazzetta Dello Sport published a video on Tuesday showing Wesley attempting to prepare carbonara, a classic Roman pasta dish. The lighthearted footage highlights his efforts to integrate into his new surroundings and learn about Italian traditions.
Roma are currently pushing for a European qualification spot in Serie A, and Wesley’s performances will be crucial as the season reaches its conclusion. The club will hope he continues to develop and become a key player in their long-term plans. His willingness to embrace the local culture suggests a strong commitment to his new life in Italy, potentially leading to a prolonged and successful spell with the club.
