Roma are close to signing Porto midfielder Rodrigo Mora.
As reported by İdman.Biz, the two sides continued negotiations late into the night. The final details of the deal are now being discussed, with reportedly no major obstacles remaining to its completion.
Renowned football agent Jorge Mendes is also involved in the negotiations. The 19-year-old is said to be ready to move to Rome with his family and is keen to continue his career with the Italian club.
Roma have already submitted a concrete offer to Porto. The main issue under discussion is the conditions under which a mandatory purchase clause could be included in a potential loan agreement. According to the source, the Portuguese club rejected the initial proposal and sent a counter-offer to their Italian counterparts.
Last year, Mora received an offer worth more than €60 million from Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad, but opted to remain in Portugal with his family. The midfielder is now positive about a move to Roma, as he is hoping to receive more playing time.
