Monchi looking to tie Pellegrini down
As reported by 'Gazzetta dello Sport', Roma's sporting director Monchi wants to sort out Lorenzo Pellegrini's contract.
According to the Italian outlet, there is widespread interest in the midfielder, with teams like Inter Milan and Juventus keen on bringing him in. With this in mind, Monchi wants to move quickly and avoid an easy departure for the Italian.
It turns out that Pellegrini has a strange contract that means that his release clause changes from season to season, depending on how many appearances he makes. Monchi is looking to get rid of this clause.
The U21 Italian international was Monchi's third signing after moving to Roma from Sevilla, so he knows very well what the player is capable of.
