Reliable sources are reporting that discussions have begun between Roma and Nottingham over the transfer of Morato. The defender has emerged as a top target for the interested team, and talks are reportedly progressing as the two clubs explore whether there is a deal to be done for the player. Until a fee and conditions are finalised, the deal remains vulnerable to disruption - especially if Wolfsburg decide to make a formal offer of their own in the coming days. With only 0 goals conceded in 1 (0 per game), Roma have been one of the stronger defences in the Serie A this season.. Morato would be asked to keep that standard and provide dependable cover when needed. Nottingham continue to be linked with Luis Suarez, Dodo and Karim Coulibaly while Roma are also rumoured to be tracking Jamie Bynoe Gittens, Malick Fofana and Rodrigo Mora.
