Driussi agent: 'Roma opportunity'

By Football Italia staff

Roma appear to have beaten Inter and other clubs to River Plate star Sebastian Driussi after his agent called it “a great opportunity.”

The 21-year-old centre-forward scored 18 goals in 28 competitive games this season, including three in four Copa Libertadores appearances.

Inter and Sampdoria are among the sides interested, but the Corriere dello Sport claims Roma have clinched a deal worth €10m-€12m.

“There is nothing official at the moment,” agent Gustavo Pedrozo told Romanews.eu.

“There is interest from Roma and we do what is best for the club and the player. Obviously the lad sees Roma as a big club on an international level and a great opportunity, but I repeat, at the moment there is nothing official.”
