Roma have reportedly increased their offer for Chris Smalling, while the Manchester United defender only wants the Giallorossi.
The situation has been dragging on for months, as the Italians were hamstrung by the club takeover by Dan Friedkin from previous owner James Pallotta.
This has brought in fresh funds and Sky Sport Italia claim there has been significant progress in negotiations today.
Smalling spent last season on loan at Roma and made a huge impression in his 37 games, including three goals.

It’s reported that Manchester United want €25m, but Roma are now expected to increase their offer to €20m plus bonuses.
