Roma’s young midfielder Federico Viviani is set to decide between loan offers from Leeds United and Latina.

Viviani spent last season on loan first at Pescara, and then at Latina Calcio, where  made a total of 27 appearances in Serie B, helping the Leoni alati reach the playoffs, scoring five goals in the process.

According to TuttoMercatoWeb, the 22-year-old is set for another season out on loan and will decide this week whether he wants to go back to Latina Calcio, where he had a productive second half of last season, or experience life in England with Leeds, who have recently signed the Italian duo of goalkeeper Marco Silvestri and midfielder Tommaso Bianchi.

After coming through the youth system of Roma, Viviani signed a five-year contract in May 2012 though he has made just nine first team appearances for Roma since making his debut.
