Roma duel with Feyenoord over Fluminense defender Nino

Roma are reportedly locked in a transfer battle with Feyenoord over the services of Fluminense defender Nino.

According to the latest report by ANSA, the Giallorossi have identified the 26-year-old defender as one of their preferred transfer targets ahead of January, especially given his soon-to-be expiring contract with the Brazilian side.

In recent days, Nino acknowledged that he could consider offers to play in Europe after Fluminense lost the Club World Cup to Manchester City.

Nino’s current deal includes a release clause worth €7 million, and Roma are not the only team to have shown interest in him: Feyenoord have also come knocking on Fluminense’s doorstep, as well as Nottingham Forest, Fulham and Liverpool.
