Roma have completed the temporary signing of Danish defender Rasmus Kristensen.
The club announced it via the following official statement posted on their website:
“AS Roma is delighted to announce the signing of Rasmus Kristensen on a loan deal from Leeds United until 30 June 2024.
“I’m proud to be part of this great club – you can feel the history as soon as you walk in here,” Kristensen commented.
“Roma’s European success in recent years made me want to play for this club even more. I can’t wait to have my every day life here.”
The Danish right-back, 26, made his professional debut for Midtjylland, then moved to Ajax for a season. In 2018 he joined Salzburg and spent three years in Austria, before signing for Leeds United last summer.
“Rasmus is a player we’ve been tracking for a long time, even before he joined Leeds, and now we finally have the chance to bring him to Rome,” said Tiago Pinto, AS Roma General Manager, Football.
“He has accumulated a great deal of experience despite his young age. We’re convinced that he will boost our defensive options and make our squad even stronger.”
