Roma to get Del Horno?
Friday 24 August, 2007

Roma are reportedly closing in on Valencia left-back Asier Del Horno, despite FIFA agent Ernesto Bronzetti’s attempts to derail the move.

The Giallorossi sold star defender Cristian Chivu to Inter earlier in the summer, but have set about replacing him with the additions of Brazilian pair Juan and Cicinho.

Ex-Chelsea man Del Horno has fallen out of favour at the Mestalla and Los Che boss Quique Sanchez Flores has put him on the transfer list as the 26-year-old doesn’t feature in his future plans.

Rumours in Spain suggest that Del Horno’s discussions with the capital club are already at an advanced stage and renowned middleman Bronzetti confirms this is the case, but stresses that he has reservations.

“I have no doubts on the football side of things,” he explained. “But I warned Roma not to proceed as Del Horno’s personality isn’t compatable with the Roman atmosphere.”
