After being on the brink of joining Roma, Florentino Luis will remain at Sl Benfica - at least for now. According to sources close to the deal, talks over a potential transfer have collapsed, with negotiations hitting a wall late in the process. The midfielder had been seen as a priority signing for the interested team but it looks like they will have to look elsewhere or return with an improved offer. With negotiations ending unsuccessfully, Florentino Luis will not join Roma - but interest from Burnley, Everton and Marseille could yet reignite. Roma look balanced this season - 1.17 goals scored and 0.33 goals conceded per game. Florentino Luis would be expected to bring control and consistency to help push them to another level. Sl Benfica have also been linked with Antony Santos while Roma are reportedly monitoring Wilson Odobert, Tyrell Malacia and Yves Bissouma. Want to see how the story develops?
