Serie A outfit AS Roma are pushing to sign Leeds United right-back Rasmus Kristensen this summer. That’s according to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, who claims the two parties are in 'advanced talks' over a deal.
The report says the deal would be a loan, with Roma hoping to land the Denmark international over the next few days. It is understood that Kristensen voiced his intention to stay at Elland Road this summer following the club’s relegation from the Premier League.
But, the opportunity to link up with Jose Mourinho’s Europa League finalists and continue his career in the top flight would more than likely be a tempting proposition for any player. The report states that Roma had an interest in Kristensen last summer before his move from Red Bull Salzburg to Leeds and they have chosen to rekindle their interest in him this time around.
