Chelsea, Barcelona target Miralem Pjanic refuses to rule out AS Roma exit
Scorer of a marvelous free kick goal during Serbia’s 3-0 win to Luxembourg yesterday, the 25-year-old playmaker revealed he’s open to a future transfer despite being happy at AS Roma.
“I am ok, I am fit and I am happy to stay at AS Roma.”
“Transfer rumors and gossips are normal in football, I am used to that. However, if a club is interested in signing me it should be easy and quick to find an agreement.”
Pjanic is the Giallorossi leading scorer with 11 goals in all competitions this term and he’s at the Olimpico on a € 3 million a year deal until 2018.
With the best European sides looking to sign a strong central midfielder this summer, the former Lyon starlet has been linked with moves to Barcelona, PSG, Chelsea Bayern and Real Madrid.
His price-tag is believed to exceed € 35 million, though it is still unknown if there is a € 30 million release clause on his contract which would make Pjanic suitors’ life much easier in case they wanted to sign him this summer.
