Roma have agreed a deal to bring in Leeds United defender Rasmus Kristensen on a season long loan deal.

Once the deal is finalised, Kristensen will become Jose Mourinho’s side’s fourth summer signing following the arrivals of the aforementioned Llorente, Evan N’Dicka and Houssem Aouar. The Giallorossi remain keen on making more additions to the side, as they look to sign a striker. Gianluca Scamacca and Atletico Madrid’s Alvaro Morata have both been linked with a move to the Roman outfit.
