Roma keep scouring the market to find bargains and have started eyeing Youri Tielemans. His contract with Leicester City runs out in June. His side is on the brink of relegation. The Giallorossi have joined the race to onboard him on a Bosman transfer. However, he’s being pursued by several other clubs, in particular, English ones and Juventus, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.
The midfielder would be able to play in multiple roles in their design, plus he has ample international experience. The capital side already secured the signature of Houssem Aouar at the position. Though, Georginio Wijnaldum will likely head back to PSG at the end of the season. He’d have to agree to significantly lower wages to stay put.
Roma are keen on Tielemans but don’t want to participate in bidding wars. Therefore, they’d do the deal only at their conditions. That’s the case also for another coveted free agent they have been chasing, Eintracht Frankfurt’s Evan N’Dicka.
The Giallorossi offered him a four-year contract, concurring on his salary. However, they’d pull out of the fray if his camp shopped their proposal around and asked for higher wages. PSG and some Premier League sides are tracking the French center-back as well.
