Roma To Hijack Silvestre Deal?
-
Bordeaux have admitted their concern that Roma have suddenly got the edge on them in their bid to secure the services of unsettled Manchester United defender Mikael Silvestre.
Silvestre, 31, has been strongly tipped to make a return to his French homeland and ambitious Bordeaux, but the club's chief scout Marius Tresor has raised serious doubts.
“For Mikael Silvestre, I’m afraid it’s complicated,” said the ex French star.
“I recently met him in the West Indies.
“He told me he was at least approached by Roma," Tresor added.
“And as far as both teams are concerned, there’s a risk a permanent move to Roma is more attractive than a loan to Bordeaux.”
Roma have taken a fancy to out of favour Premiership side-backs of late, having also been strongly linked to Liverpool defender John Arne Riise in recent weeks. -
