A.S Roma in pole position to hijack Inter Milan move for Genoa striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rodrigo-c31437 Palacio
The agent of Genoa striker, Rodrigo Palacio, has revealed that A.S Roma could hijack http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan’s deal for his client.
Palacio has been linked in a swap deal with Inter striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Goran-Pandev-c15161, for the past few weeks but a deal could not go through. The Nerazzurri are interested in signing the striker, as their new boss, Gian Piero Gasperini, is a huge admirer of him, when he used to manage the Rossoblu.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mirko-Vucinic-c26024, and are interested in signing the Argentine forward according to the player’s agent.
The agent confirmed that Roma have made a contact with Genoa officials and several possibilities are being discussed.
“It’s true that Roma are keen on Palacio. Both us and Genoa have been in contact with the Giallorossi. It’s clear that wearing their shirt would be a great achievement for anyone. They are a great club with great players, but I want to underline that Rodrigo is very happy at Genoa."
“You have to consider that my client is very attached to Genoa and if it was just up to him then he would stay. I think there is a 50 per cent chance that the boy could change clubs, also because there are other sides who have made offers to be evaluated too.”
The 29-year-old will fit the bill in Luis Enrique’s squad and could prove to be a handy replacement for the Montenegrin international. On the other hand, Genoa would be reluctant to sell him after finishing in the top half of the table last season.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Boca-Juniors-c38658 star scored 8 goals in 28 matches in all competitions last season before picking up a serious knee injury at the end of the campaign. The situation would put Gasperini on alert and he might be tempted to push for a deal as quickly as possible.
On the other hand, Genoa manager, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alberto-c4309 Malesani, would be looking to add new faces to the squad before letting his prized star leave the club.
