Roma to offer 10 million euros to keep Smalling

The defender might have found a new home. After many years as a Man Utd player, he moved on loan to Italy because of the lack of opportunities he was getting under Solskjaer. Now, under Fonseca, he is one of the leaders of the team. 

He has made seven appearances and in fact, in the last one, away to Udinese, he managed to get his first goal for them. He is really enjoying himself and both the fans and the coach are happy with him. 

Therefore, according to 'Sky Sport', the club are preparing to offer Man Utd 10 million euros to make the loan deal permanent. Negotiations might start in January, but in any case, it will not be easy for the Italian outfit to get their wish. 

'Sky Sport' says the English club want at least 20 million euros for Smalling. All his experience justifies their asking price, but the players contract runs out in 2020 so Smalling might wait to become a free agent before changing club.
