ibarbo - RomaRoma have almost reached an agreement with Watford over the loan transfer of Victor Ibarbo from the Giallorossi to the Hornets.

This sale is part of a bigger plan at Roma to reduce the number of wingers as the signings of Iago Falque and Mohamed Salah have created a surplus of wide men at the Stadio Olimpico.

Sky Sport Italia report that the Colombian could be in England tomorrow to undergo his medical, while Inside Futbol write that the Hertfordshire side have held off competition from Leeds united to complete the season-long loan deal.

Ibarbo signed for Roma in January from relegated Cagliari and hasn’t made the impact expected by coach Rudi Garcia in his short spell in Rome.

It seems that AC Milan’s Suso could also be joining Ibarbo at Watford in a deal to be made in the closing hours of the transfer window, the contract is to be of a similar nature.
