Corini eyes Roma switch Monday 11 June, 2007

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Eugenio Corini has admitted that he would be glad to join Roma once his contract with Palermo expires.

The former Rosanero captain bid farewell to the Sicilian outfit last week, after the Isolani refused to renew his deal, which ends this month.

Corini is now looking for a new club in Serie A, as he wishes to end his career in the top flight, and the Giallorossi are reportedly keen on signing the 36-year-old.

“Roma would be an amazing experience and I am pleased to hear that they are interested in me,” said the former Chievo star.

“I am evaluating different options, this is a difficult moment in my career. The proof of the pudding is in the eating, we will see,” added Corini, who could represent an alternative to David Pizarro.

The midfielder has also been in contact with Siena and should be in Tuscany today to discuss details with the Bianconeri, as he is reportedly interested in a £570,000 one-year deal or a £857,000 two-year contract.

Corini, also target for Napoli and Torino, gave his farewell to Palermo in a press conference on Friday.

In his tearful statement he admitted that he was hoping to become a part of the club, playing for another season and then taking on a directorial role, but that the Rosanero didn’t want him
