According to Lecce sporting director Guido Angelozzi the future of Montenegro striker Mirko Vucinic is in Rome.
The Giallorossi ace is co-owned by Lecce and Roma, and the latter need to make a good offer if they want to sign him completely.
Vucinic has reportedly been linked to Real Madrid, so the Giallorossi cannot afford to waste time.
“The relationship between Roma and Lecce is good, and the Giallorossi are the favorite to sign Vucinic,” said Angelozzi.
“We haven’t negotiated his transfer with any other team, because we do not like to talk with many teams about one player,” he told Il Romanista.
“The player is in Rome, so it is up to them to make a move, but it is not a mystery why there are several big clubs interested.
“It is normal that outfits such as Real Madrid and Manchester United are interested. But Roma are a great team and I am convinced they will get him.” he concluded.
Vucinic has scored two Serie A goals so far this season proving to be a valid alternative to star-man Francesco Totti. The 24-year-old has already claimed he wishes to renew his contract with the Giallorossi.
Roma will start preparing their next Serie A tie against Atalanta next week.
