Aleix Vidal: 'Roma interest real'

By Football Italia staff

Barcelona full-back Aleix Vidal’s agent confirmed “there is interest from Roma and it would be nice to reunite with Monchi. We are open to a loan.”

He scored in the Clasico against Real Madrid, but is still struggling for playing time at Camp Nou.

“He is a professional and trains at 100 per cent, then the technical choices are down to the Coach,” representative Ruggero Lacerenza told Tele Radio Stereo.

“It’s true, there is interest from Roma. Aleix is a player of a very high level, after all. It’d be nice to reunite with Monchi, as they worked well together at Sevilla and had a good personal rapport.”

There have been reports of Atletico Madrid also preparing a January swoop for Aleix Vidal.

“Aleix is happy to play in Spain, but that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t be pleased to test himself in other leagues or other clubs.

“The important thing is that the two clubs agree terms, but for us a loan deal is a possible solution.”
