Roma are believed to be close to completing a deal for Fluminense’s Gerson, but must negotiate with Barcelona.
The Blaugrana have the option of first refusal on the full-back, and have five days to match Roma’s offer, which is believed to be between €17m and €18m.
That proposal has been accepted, according to La Stampa, with the player agreeing a five-year contract worth €1.2m per season.

The Giallorossi will face Barcelona on Wednesday in the Trofeo Gamper, so the newspaper believes that they will use that occasion to convince the Catalan giants not to make a move.
Barca have a transfer ban, and cannot register players until January, but could sign Gerson before then, as they have done with Aleix Vidal and Arda Turan.
