Alessandro Florenzi, who started in Roma's youth team in 2002 and collected 280 appearances with the club could be saying farewell to the giallorossi. Valencia is targeting Florenzi, guaranteeing him a chance to play matches, something that Florenzi is aware of as he challenges for a place with Italy in Euro 2020.
Florenzi's agent Lucci met with Roma director Petrachi, and the intention from both sides is to separate from one another. There are still hurdles to cross to make a deal happen. However, there is an agreement that the move will be permanent, not tied to appearances or Champions League results, as Valencia prefers. The contract could be a hurdle to cross given the limited time available, with significant complications to agreements made by Spanish clubs, as evidenced by an 18-page document outlining the various clauses in the deal. Valencia are confident that techincally Florenzi makes a good fit, but there are still doubts related to the player's wages, which would be the highest in the team.
