Roma boss wants to keep hold of his star amid strong Chelsea interest In recent weeks, Roma’s talisman midfielder Daniele De Rossi has been linked with a possible move to Chelsea, with reports circulating that the Blues are willing to dish out £10 million for the Italy international. The 29-year-old has been at the Capital club since his playing days at the youth level and has always maintained a strong level of commitment and bonding with the club and the Giallorossi fans. A world-class midfielder, in his own right, De Rossi, has always been linked with a move to top clubs of Europe, throughout his career, but he has re-affirmed his commitment every time. However, unlike other cases, this time there is a deep silence, from his end and speculations are rife that he would switch clubs in the summer. Last season, he fell out with his former manager Zdenek Zeman, but new manager Rudi Garcia wants him to stay. Chelsea are reportedly weighing up a bid for the Italian, as manager Jose Mourinho wants to bring in a world-class midfielder to bolster his midfield region.
