I can not fix missing dependencies in Debian Linux

I have run the cmd, but the problem still persists = missing dependencies.
This is the reply in the terminal when i tried to update-upgrade a package (( Express vpn )).
Yes iim root.
sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade expressvpn
[sudo] password for debian2:

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-image-amd64 : Depends: linux-image-5.10.0-30-amd64 (= 5.10.218-1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
debian2@debian1:~$ apt --fix - broken install
E: Command line option --fix is not understood in combination with the other options
debian2@debian1:~$ apt --fix-broken install
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?
debian2@debian1:~$ root
