“Bailey frees up a position,” said Gian Piero Gasperini at a press conference.
“Opportunities must be seized, or we’ll remain as we are,” he added, and this is the strategy Roma intends to adopt.
The closer we get to February 2nd, the more teams may compromise.
Around Trigoria, according to Il Corriere della Sera, the favorite for the right-footed left winger is Mathys Tel: despite Thomas Frank removing him from the Champions League squad, Tottenham are holding back from selling the 2005-born player.
Gian Piero Gasperini also likes Leo Sauer. A right-footed left winger, he’s 20 years old like the Frenchman and is popular for his ability to play the role.
Feyenoord didn’t open up about a move in January: discussions have been postponed until next summer.
However, Roma need reinforcements now, and further contacts will be made in the coming hours.
