As they await for Maitland-Niles arrival in Italy, Roma continue to be active on the transfer market. Their next target is a midfielder to improve Jose' Mourinho's squad.
There are now confirmations on the reports from Portugal linking the giallorossi to Sergio Oliveira. Roma had pursued the Porto player at end of the summer transfer window and have now rekindled contacts with his agent Jorge Mendes, who also represents Mourinho.
Roma are banking on a promise made to the player from Porto's president, the intention is to let him leave if a worthy offer arrives- also on loan, the only formula Roma can use at this time, which was recently confirmed by Mourinho in a recent press conference.
