DBasia.news – Ahead of the closing of the transfer market, the future of AS Roma striker, Edin Dzeko has yet to find clarity. In fact, there are various kinds of paths that can be the way out for the striker.
The issue of Edin Dzeko’s departure circulated after the striker had a problem with AS Roma coach, Paulo Fonseca. Dzeko often criticized the coach’s tactics and leadership.
At the end of last season, Dzeko issued open criticism of Fonseca. Dzeko is furious because Roma were eliminated by Sevilla in the Europa League.
Hot balls are getting bigger this season. The two of them returned to conflict after Roma was expelled by Spezia in the Coppa Italia.
Fonseca tried to cool the situation down. However, the heat was still clearly still felt.
“I do not demand an apology from him. For me, moral principles are more important and Rome showed that they didn’t depend on him,” said Fonseca.
Fonseca also began to get rid of Dzeko from the squad. Most recently, Dzeko was not included when Roma defeated Verona.
Dzeko’s agent has began to provide offers for his client. Staying in Rome risks making Dzeko isolated until the end of the season.
One of the biggest possibilities is to swap Dzeko for Inter Milan striker, Alexis Sanchez. The two clubs have been negotiating in the last few days.
However, the problem is Dzeko’s gross salary is 3 million euros more than Sanchez. Inter, who were struggling financially, refused to pay the difference and has asked Roma to pay for it.
This problem becomes a barrier. In fact, both players have agreed to change clubs.
According to Calciomercato, the two clubs will meet again ahead of the close of the transfer market to see if the transfer can be completed. However, one thing that needs to take precedence is the willing of the two clubs to back down.
If that fails, Dzeko is predicted to stay in Rome until the end of the season. Of course, Friedkins as the owner of Roma will try to reintegrate the former Manchester City player into the team.
However, it is difficult to see Dzeko getting along well with Fonseca. Moreover, the coach has found a formula without Dzeko. That way, Dzeko’s future is still uncertain.
