Baptista is certain to leave Real Madrid this summer as he is not in German coach Bernd Schuster’s first team plans.
Up until a few days ago, there had been almost constant reports about a proposed transfer of the 26-year-old to Roma, with the Italian and Spanish press claiming that a deal would almost certainly go through.
Earlier this week, Baptista’s agent claimed that there had been no contact from the Giallorossi, and the chances of a transfer appeared to be slim when the Italians tabled an official bid for Fiorentina’s Adrian Mutu.
However, the Viola rejected this offer and stated that the Romanian was not for sale. Roma have not completely given up hope of signing Mutu, but the Gazzetta claims that they are now tentatively moving back towards Baptista.
Luciano Spalletti is desperate to sign a top class forward before the end of the transfer window, and he has also shortlisted Villarreal’s Giuseppe Rossi, and Russian Euro 2008 star Andrei Arshavin as possible alternatives.
