De Roon arrives ahead of Roma medical

Marten De Roon touched down in Rome on Tuesday, setting the stage for his imminent medical examination and potential contract signing with Roma. The Dutch midfielder's arrival was a clear indication of his intent to reunite with former boss Gian Piero Gasperini and rejoin the Giallorossi, with the 24-year-old having secured a one-million-euro deal with Atalanta.
