Reports in Italy claim Roma have found a solution to convince young star Antonio Cassano to pen a new contract at the club.
Giallorossi are ready to offer a deal including a clause that will allow Cassano to leave the club next summer, should the player desire a move.
The 23-year-old's current contract expires in a year's time, and Roma are desperate not to lose their prize asset for free.
The Italian transfer window closes on August 31st, and it appears that Cassano will not find a new club before the deadline.
Roma chief officer Rossella Sensi had earlier threatened to prevent the Italian international from playing whilst he did not sign a new contract, which would seriously affect the forward's chances of playing in World Cup 2006.
The new solution, that would see both parties benefit from Cassano's expected departure, is expected to be ironed out over the next week.

Not 5 but 6, well if u shoot down Miccoli then it will be 5
, I really hope Zala will still be playing for us. He's our saviour.

Add there Cassano and imagine what could happen.
Del Piero in all likelihood will be sold to Milan imo. Corriere Dello Sport are now reporting that Milan are ready to bid for Cassano to come in January if Moggi doesnt close the deal with Roma by the 31st of this month. The deal remains the same as previously discussed: cash + Chiellini + Miccoli/Mutu. With two players being inserted into that deal, a sale may just cordone of the requirements of the cash involved, and I would see no sense in selling Del Piero to raise cash and trading Mutu in the deal. Other emanating reports say Miccoli is close to a Benfica move. Seems like that sale will raise cash, in addition to a Dp sale. Which then might just be an all cash deal for Cassano. Who knows? But I just hope Mutu is nowhere on the trade lines.
