Bari keen on Roma defender

Andreolli’s agent, Patrick Bastianelli, has revealed that the clubs have held talks over a move for the Italian Under-21 international.

“There was a meeting between Luciano Spalletti and Bari coach Giampiero Ventura on Monday. Now it’s down to the clubs to reach an agreement,” Bastianelli told Romagiallarossa.com.

“The player needs regular football, and this is unlikely at Roma as they have two very strong central defenders in Philippe Mexes and Juan.

“It’s clear that Bari are one of the teams on Andreolli, but we have to evaluate the situation.”
