Udinese is increasing their efforts to acquire Mattia Mannini, a right-back born in 2006, who will be out of contract with Roma in June and appears unwilling to renew his contract. Discussions with Roma's sporting director, Ghisolfi, and the management have so far failed to reach a renewal agreement. Mannini, recognized for his versatility and ability to play as a midfielder, is being considered as a potential successor to Alessandro Florenzi. He has already made his debut for Roma's first team under the management of José Mourinho, and this season, he has made 11 appearances and scored 2 goals with Roma's Primavera. As a key player and captain for Italy's Under 19 team, Mannini is viewed as one of the most promising prospects in Italian football. Although Udinese is eager to sign him, clubs from across the English Channel have also expressed interest.
