Roma's financial books are in the red, but the club will reportedly keep investing on the back of increasing revenue.

The club's board of directors met yesterday to determine the financial plan for the next six months.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma recorded an increase of €52m in their revenue, which now totals €180m, even though the publication does not specify whether these figures are yearly or six-monthly.

Their costs are also rising as the club keeps investing, with an increase of €40m in expenses.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma recorded an increase of €52m in their revenue, which now totals €180m, even though the publication does not specify whether these figures are yearly or six-monthly.

Their costs are also rising as the club keeps investing, with an increase of €40m in expenses.

The club's balance is currently negative, with an overall loss of €41m.

Nonetheless the board of directors decided not to aim for balancing the books right away, on the back of their increasing revenue.

This includes profits from the Champions League, which stand at €52m, and income from transfer sales at €38m.

The club is reportedly optimistic that they'll be able to bring their balance within UEFA's Financial Fair Play regulations, which requires a deficit no greater than €30m, as opposed to Roma's current €41m.
