It is claimed that their qualification for the Champions League will allow them to pursue a permanent deal if they so wish, but they would prefer to get the forward on loan with an option to buy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">And Sky Sport Italia now claim that Roma have made the first formal proposal for Garnacho &#8211; a loan for \u20ac5m (\u00a34m) with an option to make it permanent for another \u20ac35m (\u00a329m).

The same accounting benefit would apply to any sale-on income they receive down the line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Elsewhere, in an update on United-linked Summerville &#8211; it is reported that Roma are looking to rival the Reds for his signature.
