The Christmas Eve edition of Gazzetta dello Sport has a feature on AS Roma transfers.
Whilst it’s mostly looking towards the winter transfer window and attackers, with the possibility of Michy Batshuayi arriving from Chelsea if his Valencia loan is cancelled, there’s also a look towards next summer.
Now there’s a hope Roma can get through the next round of the Champions League against Porto, to put them in a better position financially ahead of the summer.
Thought to need fullbacks as part of a long standing issue, one man said to have caught the club’s eye, and that of sporting director Monchi, is Patrick van Aanholt.
Van Aanholt has played 18 games in the league so far this season and has clearly been a key part of Roy Hodgson’s system.
If Roma are looking for a bargain, as they so often are, then this is unlikely to be the right track.
