Roma striker Edin Dzeko is reportedly ready to turn down Juventus and Inter because his wife wants to remain in the Eternal City.
The 34-year-old had already been on the verge of a move to Inter last summer, only to extend his contract with the Giallorossi instead.
Now the situation has come back around again, with Juve joining in the battle for the Bosnian’s signature.
“For now, he will continue wearing the Giallorossi jersey, then we’ll see,” agent Silvano Martina told Sportitalia this week.
Roma striker Edin Dzeko is reportedly ready to turn down Juventus and Inter because his wife wants to remain in the Eternal City.
The 34-year-old had already been on the verge of a move to Inter last summer, only to extend his contract with the Giallorossi instead.
Now the situation has come back around again, with Juve joining in the battle for the Bosnian’s signature.
“For now, he will continue wearing the Giallorossi jersey, then we’ll see,” agent Silvano Martina told Sportitalia this week.
“It’s no secret that Juve and Inter both like Edin.”
According to the Corriere dello Sport, Dzeko is by no means eager to make the move for several reasons.
He would be guaranteed playing time at Roma, but not necessarily with Inter or Juventus, where he’d be second choice.
Above all, it’s reported his wife Amra is pregnant with the couple’s third child and is very much settled in Rome.
She does not want too much disruption from a move, especially during this difficult time when her family is expanding.
