According to reports, Manchester United star player Daley Blind has been identified as the right guy to replace Emerson Palmieri at Roma after the Brazilian player completed his move to Chelsea on Tuesday night.
The premier league champions paid the Serie A side £25million for Emerson’s signature, and Roma wants a new left-back to fill the space opened by the samba star.
Manchester United’s Daley Blind has been struggling for regular playing time at the club under manager Jose Mourinho.
The talented 27-year-old is understood to be keen on leaving Old Trafford, and it appears his next destination will be Italy.
According to the Daily Mail, Blind could join Roma before the closure of the ongoing winter transfer window.
The Dutchman is seen merely as a squad member at the Theater of dreams, and with Luke Shaw getting better, it is obvious Daley will move further down the pecking order in Mourinho’s team.
Louis Van Gaal bought Blind from Ajax in 2014 for £14M, and the Netherlands international was a regular player when the Dutch tactician was still boss at the club.
He is likely to get regular first-team football at Roma, and this thought should make the £16M-rated player push for a late move to the Italian capital before the closure of the transfer window.
