Roma Make Drenthe Enquiry

fount : goal.com



The Giallorossi are keen to bolster their squad with two more acquisitions in the next few days and have been linked with a host of players.

But negotiations for Baptista are ongoing and Marca state that Drenthe's name has come up because Los Merengues indicated that they could be willing to sell.

Only a year after prising the 21-year-old from Feyenoord, Bernd Schuster is believed that have hoped he would progress quicker than he has done and could cash in.

Drenthe is due to travel the Olympic Games with the Holland squad at the end of the month and has made it clear that he has no desire to leave the club next season.

One option could be a loan move that would see Drenthe able to gain valuable first team experience, which he is set to miss out on again next term at Madrid.

According to Marca, Juventus and Fiorentina have also made enquiries in the past, although la Vecchia Signora's interest has now ended after they declared their squad to be complete.

Last summer, Drenthe agreed to join Madrid for €14m and looked set to be loaned straight back to the Dutch club, but that failed to materialise and he had to settle for a bit-part role at the BernabĂ©u.
