Alberto Aquilani's agent Franco Zavaglia has revealed that his in-demand client will be staying at Roma despite the interest of several clubs. Aquilani has been in inspirational form for Roma this year, which has seen Real Madrid make an enquiry.

“Sensi has made her intentions clear, she wants Aquilani to stay,” Zavaglia told Il Romanista.

“He is a Roma player and I don’t think the club will let players like Aquilani or De Rossi leave just like that. And to be honest I don’t think they will leave.

“I am not surprised that Aquilani is wanted by many European sides, he deserves it. He has been good this season although he has been hampered with injury.

“However he has recovered and so I think he will be playing before the season ends. As for the Euro’s, let’s hope he goes.”
