The Italy international has changed his mind after an initial rejection and is now eager for the move to China.

However, the two clubs are yet to work out a fee and will continue negotiating.

It’s reported Roma want at least €20m, whereas the offer on the table right now is just €14m plus bonuses.

At the same time, Sky Sport Italia insist Shanghai Shenhua have agreed a €25m deal for West Ham United striker Marko Arnautovic.
