Report – Roma Identify Replacement For Outgoing Turkey Wingback Amid Inter Milan Interest

Roma have reportedly identified a potential replacement for Zeki Celik, who could join Inter Milan as a free agent in the summer.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Giallorossi could make a summer swoop for Juchym Konoplya.

Despite retaining his regular first-team status under Gian Piero Gasperini this season, Celik is on the verge of leaving the Stadio Olimpico.

Indeed, the Turkish wingback has made 29 appearances in Serie A, scoring one goal and providing two assists.

However, his contract expires in June, and Roma have already decided to let him leave the club on a free transfer.

Meanwhile, Inter are keen to sign the former Lille star on a Bosman deal.

With Celik setting one foot outside the Olimpico, Roma are plotting a summer move for Shakhtar Donetsk stalwart Juchym Konoplya.

Konoplya’s contract runs out in September, meaning the Giallorossi can lure him to Serie A without making a substantial financial sacrifice.
