Roma are pushing to finalize a deal involving Lille’s Zeki Çelik before the weekend as the club’s priority remains securing a valid alternative to Rick Karsdorp.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Sport, Roma will meet once again with Lille tomorrow afternoon in order to narrow the gap between the capital club’s offer and the French side’s demands for the Turkish fullback.
The Giallorossi are hoping to finalize the deal tomorrow in order to be able to complete Çelik’s signing in the coming weeks.
There is growing optimism regarding a positive outcome of the deal as Roma want to up their offer from the initial €5.5 million to around €7 million.
