S. El Shaarawy - one step away from moving to Roma

"Milan" executive director Adriano Galliani confirmed that currently the winger Stephane El Shaarawy, who is on loan to "Monaco", is close to moving to "Roma".

The 23-year-old footballer has played only 7 matches from the start in the "Ligue 1" championship this season, and has not scored a single goal in 15 games.

The Italian did not even take to the field in the last three matches for "Monaco", so "Milan" started looking for another team for him to regain form after a series of injuries.

Last Saturday, the strategist of the capital's club Luciano Spalletti revealed that he admires El Shaarawy, and now it is clear that the winger will join the "giallorossi", who will have the opportunity to buy his contract permanently after the season.

Asked about this transfer, Galliani replied: "Negotiations with "Roma" are going smoothly, we will see on Monday if we can reach an agreement."

The "Rossoneri" director also added that midfielder Antonio Nocerino is likely to move across the Atlantic - to the MLS championship.
