Roma are reportedly determined to secure the services of Manchester United defender Chris Smalling. Smalling is back at Old Trafford after reaching the end of his loan deal with Roma. Roma were interested in signing the 30-year-old on a permanent deal, but they reportedly failed to reach an agreement with Man United representatives. However, Il Tempo (via Sport Witness) claims that Roma are ready to resurrect their interest with the Italian giants prepared to throw 'everything' at a deal for Smalling. The Serie A outfit's CEO Guido Fienga is now in charge of talks and will be tasked with 'finalising the negotiations' with Man United.
