Reports in Spanish daily ‘Sport’ claimed that Roma were ready to bid €25m for the Cameroon international as well as offer him a mega €6m per year deal.

However, the club have released a statement denying what the Spanish media reported on Friday morning.

A statement on the club’s official website reads:

“With reference to the news published in the Spanish daily ‘Sport’ as well as other news agency’s regarding a presumed offer for Barcelona striker Samuel Eto’o,

“AS Roma SPA would like to communicate that the club never made such an offer.

“Such news as well as the financial facts stated in the reports are untrue and unfounded.”

Earlier on Friday afternoon, Luciano Spalletti, had revealed that he was interested in Samuel Eto’o at one point, but the player’s high demands ruined any potential deal.
