Roma plans to trade Cristante for Saelemaekers

Roma is looking for a way to secure Alexis Saelemaekers for the long term. Last summer, they had a verbal agreement with Milan for his transfer for about ten million euros. However, Saelemaekers has performed well this season, scoring six goals and providing five assists in 26 games. This success has complicated the situation for Roma. Milan has raised their demands for Saelemaekers, now asking for 20 million euros. Additionally, the coach of Milan, Sergio Conceicao, has not ruled out bringing Saelemaekers back to the team. Despite these challenges, Roma is still keen to keep the player and is exploring options. One possible solution is to offer Bryan Cristante to Milan. Cristante is a player that Milan values. Roma might propose including him in a deal, along with a cash adjustment of between eight and ten million euros, to make the transfer happen.
