Exclusive: How Tomas Rincon went from being €100m from Juventus… to closing in on Roma
The idea is that he could be swapped with Juan Iturbe, a winger who could do with resurrecting in Genoa, something that has occurred to a number of fellow attacking midfielders.
In fact, he’s set to move to Roma - who are considered to be in pole position here - with a formula similar to former team-mate Diego Perotti, set to be loaned to the Giallorossi for six months, with a €7.5 million buyback at the end.
It looks like sporting Frederic Massara has definitively overtaken Juventus - and yet, Rincon was in Turin as recently as yesterday! But it’s not what you think: he found himself 100 metres away from the Biaconeri’s HQ in Via Galileo Ferraris, but it was to visit his clinic for a routine check!
The Venezuelan is a respected tough tackler, and would be a fine addition to any midfield - though some of our editorialists aren’t so convinced by the notion of an eventual move to Turin.
