The Brazilian is believed to have agreed terms with the Giallorossi, but the Catalan side are playing hardball over a fee.
“Adriano has a great relationship with everyone at Barcelona,” Paulo Affonso told LaRoma24.
“He still has a year on his contract, and the Blaugrana hierarchy have been very good with us. With his performances, Adriano has won 20 trophies in 10 years at Barcelona.
“The player is highly-rated by his teammates, the staff and the Coach [Luis Enrique], but Adriano thinks it’s time for a change of scene.
“It’s time to face new challenges and seize and opportunity.
“Playing for a big, historic Italian team is an enticing prospect for Adriano, who would like to face new challenges and goals with Roma.
“At the moment, since we’re both professionals [Adriano and Affonso], we must handle the situation with intelligence and patience, to find an agreement between the two teams.
“It’s essential to conclude negotiations for the transfer of the player.”
