Ernesto Bronzetti: Roma Move For Real Madrid Star Ruud van Nistelrooy Is Unlikely
The prominent transfer consultant doubts the Giallorossi can afford the Dutchman’s wages…

Italian transfer consultant Ernesto Bronzetti believes that Roma have little chance of luring Real Madrid striker Ruud van Nistelrooy to the Olimpico during the January transfer window.
The out-of-favour 33-year-old has hinted at a move away from the Bernabeu to boost his chances of making the Netherlands squad for next year’s World Cup finals. Press reports have named Roma as a potential destination.
“It is difficult,” Bronzetti said to Radio Centro Suono Sport.
“He is under contract and we’ll see over the coming days if a deal can be done. [Lupi coach Claudio] Ranieri likes him. But his wages are close to €5 million-per-season and he wants to play where he has more options available to him.
“He is very much in demand in England, but we will know nothing about it until the transfer market opens.
“The coach is not playing him and it is normal that he wants to leave. Roma made an approach on transfer deadline day [last summer], but there were no grounds to make it happen.”
