Simeone plays as a centre-forward for River Plate and just returned from a loan spell at Banfield.

At Under-20 level he scored 10 goals in just 12 caps for Argentina.

Meanwhile, Sebastiani also admitted Pescara are “in talks” with Roma for defender Gyomber, again on loan.

There’s more on the horizon for the Delfini, including an approach for Cardiff City striker Macheda.

The former Manchester United forward turns 25 next month and returned to Cardiff City after a loan spell at Nottingham Forest.
