Roma closing in on Ajax striker

Huntelaar has been linked with a move to the Serie A side repeatedly in recent months.

“I spoke to Lupi sporting director Daniele Pradè and he asked me for information on the player,” Faccini told Power Station.

“There has been an offer or any concrete request from Roma for the player, but I’m sure Huntelaar will weigh up the offers during the winter.

“He could move in January, but at the moment Ajax are taking some time to consider their options.

“Huntelaar would be useful to Roma. For example, in their Champions League game against CFR Cluj they brought on Vincenzo Montella and, with all due respect, he doesn’t have Klaas Jan’s characteristics.

“However, we must remember that it wouldn’t be an easy transfer, not least because Real Madrid are still interested in him.”
