Hatem Ben Arfa’s time at Newcastle is coming to an end, with reports indicating that the French winger is set to depart the club at the end of the current season. Rudi Garcia, the coach of AS Roma, has shown interest in the talented player, according to sources.
Garcia, who is looking to strengthen his squad for the upcoming season’s Serie A campaign, has reportedly identified Ben Arfa as a potential target. With Ben Arfa’s contract expiring in 2015, AS Roma sees an opportunity to acquire the French international.
Recent discussions between Roma’s sporting director and Ben Arfa’s representatives suggest that the player is keen on a move and is open to exploring opportunities abroad.
For Ben Arfa, a move to Italy could present a fresh start and a chance to revive his career under the guidance of Rudi Garcia at AS Roma.
