The Greek defender would also receive €2.7m as a signing-on fee.

Roma are in a rush to get the transfer completed, as the financial year ends today and they need to register more profits to balance the books.

According to various sources, there could be an announcement today with Manolas flying in from Mikonos to have his medical on Monday.

La Gazzetta dello Sport claim Napoli want to introduce a release clause to the contract, but a much higher one than Roma chose.
