Roma are at work to secure an additional midfielder.
In addition to Richard Rios and Matt O’Riley, Lens midfielder El Aynaoui has also been linked with the capital club.
According to Matteo Moretto, Roma are working to close the gap between Lens’s asking price of approximately €30 million and their offer for Neil El Aynaoui.
Contacts were held between the clubs again today, and the deal will only be finalized on the terms of the Giallorossi.
The French club has already rejected an initial offer of approximately €20 million.
