Gianluca Mancini arrives for Roma medical, hopes to score in derby

Roma are on the verge of completing their fourth deal of the summer, signing Italian centre-back Gianluca Mancini from Atalanta.

Mancini is being signed by the Giallorossi to serve as a replacement for Kostas Manolas, who left the Italian capital to sign with fellow Serie A side Napoli this summer.
