Midfielder of the Italian “Atalanta” Ruslan Malinovsky, who has a lack of playing time, is considering various options for continuing his career.
Roma is in search of a high-quality attacking half, so they turned their attention to the Ukrainian. Wolves general manager Thiago Pinto is trying to bring him to Rome, claims Romaiallorossa.
According to the source, Malinovsky is Jose Mourinho's favorite for the desired position. The Portuguese really wants to sign the 29-year-old football player, so Pinto has repeatedly communicated with Ruslan and his family, who gave a positive answer regarding the transfer in the summer. The Ukrainian himself is delighted with the potential opportunity to work under the leadership of the Special.
Roma had already tried to enter into negotiations with Atalanta to sign Malinovsky in the winter, but Gian Pierre Gasperin refused to sell him. The coach, who gives the Ukrainian little playing time (only 370 minutes per season), called Ruslan an important player for the 2022/23 campaign.
Last season, the Ukrainian national team player was one of the leaders of Atalanta, but this year the situation has changed. Ruslan has only a goal + pass in 10 incomplete matches.
