El Aynaoui could leave Roma in case of Rios signing

Neil El Aynaoui could leave Roma in these final days of the transfer window.

According to calciomercato.it, the Moroccan midfielder is the subject of several interest, and his possible departure would be a prerequisite for the Giallorossi club to attempt a move for Richard Ríos.

If the former Lens player were to leave, Roma would be ready to launch a bid for the 2000-born midfielder, following a long-standing interest last summer.

Benfica, who currently owns Richard Ríos, has not closed the door on a possible transfer.
