Roma nearing move for Hellas Veronaโ€™s Daniele Ghilardi

Serie A giants Roma are making key progress in a move for Hellas Veronaโ€™s Daniele Ghilardi.

La Gazzetta dello Sport claim that with Evan Ferguson and Neil El Aynaoui sealed, Roma are working to sign a centre-back and negotiations with Verona have progressed quite quickly.

Ghilardi has agreed to sign a five-year deal with Gian Piero Gasperiniโ€™s side and his willingness is proving key in the transfer. Ricky Massara has beaten competition from Real Betis in the chase for the Italian already, with Verona looking at a fee of โ‚ฌ12 million and they are open to an obligation to buy.

Roma have come very close to their demands and made a new offer late last night and an agreement can be reached soon. Gian Piero Gasperini has been left surprised by the defenderโ€™s performances at the U21s European Championships, with Ghilardi having been excluded from Veronaโ€™s pre-season game yesterday.
