Transfer Talk - Diego Perotti

Roma are considering buying another right winger and are considering selling 29-year-old (30 in July)Argentinian Diego Perotti.

It is suggested in Italy that Tottenham and Roma have had informal talks that have not been followed up. Where does that news come from? The local Roman media.

That sounds as if an agent has spoken to Spurs and asked if we would like him and not Mauricio Pochettino going after yet another Argentinian. Have you noticed how many we get linked to in fake news,

He does not fit the profile of player we are looking for and at 30 when next season starts is too old to take a chance on. He would have to come to a new country, a new culture, a new system of play, a new league, a faster more physical league, it just doesn't make much sense when you weigh it up against the positives and consider all the other options out there.

Perotti has a contract until 2021 and that makes him too expensive for Atalanta and £35.32 million (€40m) has been mentioned to sell him to Valencia. That can only happen after 1 July to fit in with Financial Fair Play regulations.

Diego Perotti is mainly a winger but can play with both feet and he can also operate as an attacking midfielder.
