Rasmus Kristensen ‘certain conditions’ emerge as £6.4m Leeds United exit agreement nears
Roma are working to include “certain conditions” within Rasmus Kristensen’s loan agreement with Leeds United, according to Romagiallorossa.
Its believed the Serie A club are trying to conclude a loan deal with the option to purchase the right back for £6.5million if certain performance-based targets are met (Romagiallorossa, 26 June).
White smoke is understood to be close when it comes to the 25-year-old’s switch to the Italian captial in order to end his poor one-season stint at Elland Road.
Good move
This is the best move for everyone concerned. The Dane hasn’t been the player we all expected.
He arrived with a big reputation, but never looked comfortable.
It just goes to show how strong the Premier League is at present. The 25-year-old’s statistics in Austria were mightily impressive. In England, he looked lost.
If the board can recoup near to the £10million they paid then it will be excellent business. He’s still young and could reach the heights expected, but that’s not a risk the board want to take.
With Kristensen and Llorente set to both move to Roma, we could potentially see a couple of incomings when the managerial situation is finally cleared up.
Daniel Farke appears to be the man in pole position at present, with the board looking to tie up a deal in the coming days. The hunt for a new head coach cannot drag on much longer.
