Aquilani: No place like Rome Thursday 6 September, 2007
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roma midfield starlet Alberto Aquilani is ready to commit to his hometown club, despite attracting a host of high-profile suitors with recent performances.
The 23-year-old has hit a rich vein of form at the start of the campaign with two spectacular strikes in the Giallorossi’s first two Serie A outings and is ready to negotiate a new deal with the capital club.
“Alberto will play for Roma for a long time and despite the flattering interest of a number of other prestigious clubs, he is ready to commit his future to the club,” agent Franco Zavaglia told Teleradiostereo.
“Of course, Barcelona, Valencia, Chelsea and Arsenal all want him, but Aquilani has never had any doubts about where he wanted to play since he was a little boy.
Roma has always been in his heart and he has no intention of playing elsewhere. He is becoming a leader and is the future of the club alongside Daniele De Rossi.”
Aquilani will be hoping that his dream start to the season can continue on the international stage, where he is preparing to play a pivotal role in the Azzurri’s Euro 2008 qualifier against France on Saturday.
“He deserves Azzurri recognition as it is only injuries in the past that have stopped him becoming a fixture in the national side,” Zavaglia concluded.
