Report: Manu Koné is Daniele De Rossi’s explicit request for Roma

Manu Koné continues being linked as one of the main targets for Roma in the final days of the transfer window.

The French midfielder is being eyed by the Giallorossi as one of the top reinforcements for Daniele De Rossi’s squad.

Having been ruled out of Gladbach’s match with Leverkusen for reasons related to his market situation, Koné could be nearing a move to Roma.

As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Sport on Instagram, Koné is a explicit request by Daniele De Rossi who wants him at his orders.

Roma remain interested in the player who is also contended by Milan.

First, however, Roma must assess their priorities on the transfer market.
