Roma chief to hold Cassano contract talks this week
tribalfootball.com - March 29, 2005
AS Roma chief Rosella Sensi will hold talks with the representatives of striker Antonio Cassano this week.
After the Easter break in Italy, Roma will now hold serious negotiations with Cassano's agents about his future and whether he is prepared to lower his demands over a new deal.
Cassano's current contract expires in 2006 and he wants around £3.5 million-a-year to commit to a new deal.
That figure is far too high for cash-strapped Roma to contemplate and Sensi is hoping to talk down the striker's demands in the coming days.
