Celik’s future is increasingly becoming an international intrigue.
The Turk remains a permanent reference point in Gasperini’s squad, even though his contract with Roma expires on June 30, writes Giorgio Marota in Il Corriere dello Sport.
The full-back’s entourage is demanding a net salary of €4 million, a figure that Roma’s sporting management believes is unsustainable at this stage.
The proposal calls for a slight increase over the €2 million he currently earns, but without exceeding the €2.5 million mark.
Meanwhile, several major international clubs are beginning to suspect a possible free transfer, from Juventus to at least two Premier League contenders, including Fulham and Newcastle, not to mention rumors coming from the Bundesliga (Stuttgart are interested).
