Leeds' Diego Llorente to join Roma on loan

Diego Llorente could play the second half of the current season in Italy. That is what 'Sky Sport' says as they are reporting on the possible arrival of the Spanish central defender to Roma. 

Apparently, the 29 year-old defender will say goodbye to Leeds temporarily. He has a contract at the club until June 2026 to play at the Italians until 30th June 2023. 

The Real Madrid academy player has not had a lot of protagonism so far this season in England as he has played just 978 minutes in 13 appearances. Eight of those have come in the Premier League. 

In addition, the previously cited media outlet says that the Roma would have an option to buy the player if they like the Spaniard's performances during his time on loan.
