Roma and Watford are “negotiating” details of Juan Manuel Iturbe’s €15m move, confirmed Walter Sabatini.
According to Il Messaggero, Roma director Sabatini was spotted in talks with Watford patron Gianpaolo Pozzo and even spoke to their reporter.
“We are negotiating with Watford.”
Iturbe’s agent Pierpaolo Triulzi was also present at the get-together.
Pozzo also owns Serie A side Udinese and Liga club Granada, so players regularly move between the three outfits.

It had already been reported for several days that Watford were on the verge of securing Iturbe, but now they are getting down to details.
The Giallorossi would prefer to send Iturbe out on loan with option to buy, whereas Watford are eager to complete a permanent deal.
Roma want €18m to sell Iturbe and the Premier League club is hoping to pay no more than €15m.
Victor Ibarbo also enters into the situation, as he could return to Roma just six months into a season-long loan at Watford.
