Dnipro: 'Konoplyanka close to Roma'

By Football Italia staff

Dnipro have revealed that Roma are on the verge of signing Yevhen Konoplyanka from the Ukrainian club.



The transfer market has burst into life this afternoon, with reports that the Giallorossi have agreed to sell Mattia Destro to Milan.



That could see Konoplyanka come in to reinforce Rudi Garcia’s side, with the left-winger apparently close to agreeing a move to Serie A.



“Dnipro and Roma are in talks about Konoplyanka,” Andrei Stetsenko, director general of Dnipro told the club’s official website.



“The clubs have almost reached an agreement and Yehven is considering the possibility of changing club.”



According to Tuttomercatoweb, the clubs have agreed the transfer, but the player is weighing up his options to see whether Liverpool or Tottenham will also bid.



The site believes that Konoplyanka would prefer a move to the Premier League, but has already discussed the possibility of a four-year contract with Roma.
