Roma In Talks With Villarreal Over Nilmar Move

Roma have stepped up their interest in Villarreal forward Nilmar, according to Il Corriere dello Sport.

The Giallorossi have reportedly already agreed personal terms with the Brazilian, but agreeing a transfer fee with Villarreal will not be so easy.

The 27-year-old has a €50 release clause inserted in his contract, but the Spanish side are willing to accept a big in the region of €24 million.

Roma’s initial offer of €14 million plus performance related bonuses has been rejected, but the Giallorossi are likely to come back with an increased bid.

Roma sporting director Walter Sabatini has earlier stated that he plans to sign three or four more players this summer, having already brought Bojan Krkic, Erik Lamela, Maarten Stekelenburg and Jose Angel.

Nilmar is considered a perfect replacement for Mirko Vucinic, who has joined Juventus few days ago.
