Atletico Madrid winger Rodrigo Riquelme is expected to reflect on his situation under coach Diego Simeone.

The 24-year-old Spaniard is one of the players Roma approached earlier on in the transfer window to inquire about his availability for a move to the capital.

At the time Riquelme responded with hesitance.

However, things may soon change, reports La Gazzetta dello Sport, as Riquelme’s role at Atletico is still questionable.

The winger’s minutes will most likely go to Simeone’s new favorite, Samuel Lino.

In that case, Riquelme will reconsider Roma’s proposal and his entourage could reach out to the Giallorossi.
