Seydou Keita Set to Extend Stay at AS Roma
Having joined AS Roma during the summer transfer window, Seydou Keita has quickly made a strong impression on coach Rudi Garcia and the club’s staff. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the 34-year-old Malian midfielder is on the verge of extending his contract with the Giallorossi for another season, despite his current deal expiring on June 30.
Keita, a seasoned professional with experience at clubs like Marseille, Sevilla, and Barcelona, has brought leadership and composure to Roma’s midfield. His swift adaptation and consistent performances have reportedly convinced Roma’s management of his continued value to the squad.
Talks between Keita, his representatives, and club officials are expected to take place before the Christmas break to finalize the extension. The agreement would see the veteran remain in the Italian capital until at least the summer of 2016.
