Anyone from Roma you think we should go for?
De Rossi will stay, but the others…
Tuesday 7 July, 2009
Roma director of sport Daniele Pradè insists Daniele De Rossi will stay at the club, but hastens to add that the team's other players could leave.
The Giallorossi are in financial dire straits and need to sell if they are to buy this summer.
Pradè has already tried to offload Julio Baptista and Jeremy Menez, two players he only signed last year.
“I cannot promise that one of our big players will not leave,” Pradè said. “De Rossi is obviously one of the player's who will stay, but I cannot promise anything to the rest because at times the market presents unforeseen situations.”
Asked if Luciano Spalletti wants a striker for next season, Pradè replied: “We will see. The market has just begun and we don't know what will happen from now until it closes.
“We are convinced we can do well. We have started preseason with great enthusiasm, enthusiasm that we want to transmit to our fans. Without them it's like going on the pitch with a man less.
“The club is also moving on this, but the most important thing is that a new season begins today. The group has a lot of desire to start over again and earn redemption for the negative season just past,” Pradè concluded.
