Liverpool have been linked with a move for Roma midfielder Lorenzo Pellegrini in recent months, however, it seems their chances of landing the Italian this summer are slim.
As quoted by talkSPORT, the young midfielder discussed his intention for the future and reaffirmed his commitment to Roma for the time being.
It’s important for young players to want to grow and improve but I’m really happy at the club where I grew up.
The objective of every player is to win trophies and like (Daniele) De Rossi and (Francesco) Totti have stated in the past, winning a Scudetto here would be the equivalent of winning ten elsewhere.
Liverpool are seemingly on the lookout for a new central midfielder in the summer transfer window. Naby Keita will arrive from RB Leipzig, however, it seems Emre Can is destined for the exit door as his contract nears its expiration.
Pellegrini is a highly coveted player in Serie A and has continued to impress in a Roma shirt following his move from Sassuolo.
The midfielder will be desperate to help Eusebio Di Francesco’s side into the semi-finals of the Champions League this season, with Liverpool also bidding to make the final four of the competition.
Pellegrini may well be a target for Liverpool, but it doesn’t appear as though a summer move is likely.
