Sardar Azmoun seems to be convinced of his place at Roma despite still being under contract with Bayer Leverkusen.

The Iranian striker – who is serving his loan spell in the Italian capital – is said to be eyeing a permanent move to Roma.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Azmoun is determined to find a way and complete a long-term deal with the Giallorossi: the interest in this matter is mutual as Roma are said to be satisfied with the player’s performances and attitude.

The newspaper claims that Azmoun has even advanced the idea of taking a pay cut in order to facilitate his long-term signing with the club.

Roma are expected to reach out to Bayer Leverkusen and assess the situation around Azmoun and his future. The relations between the two clubs are excellent and the Giallorossi are hoping this could enable an easier negotiation.
