Roma boss Gian Piero Gasperini has ‘real obssession’ to sign Mason Greenwood

Serie A side Roma have been linked with a move for Marseille attacker Mason Greenwood and manager Gian Piero Gasperini is increasingly desperate to land him.

Corriere dello Sportreport today that the first offer from the Giallorossi is on the way.

Tony D’Amico is set to take office this week. This will help in making sure that Roma’s first offer will be at €40 million, including bonuses of €5 million. There is awareness that this won’t be enough to close the deal largely because Manchester United have a 40% sell-on clause.

This will push Marseille to up their asking price, which currently stands at €50 million. Contacts between Greenwood’s entourage and Roma have never stopped, with the player keen on a move to the Stadio Olimpico.

Gasperini has a ‘real obsession’ to sign him and is driving the move forward. While Greenwood has an agreement over personal terms with Fenerbahce, Roma feel his desire to join them will be decisive.

Deal has obvious red flag​

There is the obvious elephant in the room to be addressed, whenever there is talk about Greenwood. Roma may want to steer away from the move because of it, as signing the attacker will bring in scrutiny that the club can easily avoid.

The environment appears to be positive at the club after the chaos from Claudio Ranieri’s sacking. They wouldn’t to change that, especially considering the question marks around Greenwood’s attitude.
