Real Madrid turn to Roma ace De Rossi
Real Madrid are ready to launch a bid for Roma midfielder Daniele de Rossi.
El Mundo Deportivo says Real are eyeing De Rossi after giving up on Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso. Real GM Jorge Valdano admitted yesterday a deal for Xabi was unlikely.
De Rossi is seen as an ideal alternative, though the Italy international will take some convincing.
"I have committed my future and my loyalty to Roma. My hometown team for my whole life. I am loyal to my club and I will never leave. I do not care if other teams are interested in me," he said from South Africa.

wow real madrid must be a really shit side to keep goin after players like this
de rossi wont leave roma, itallians arnt like others.... they are very loyal and de rossi is one of the most loyal hell stay with roma through thick and thin which is a shame cause he would shine at a bigger club like chelsea, manchester, madrid or barca. If de rossi became available i can only see him moving to manchester utd were they need a DMC he wont be caught up by the glitz nd glamour of madrid and all the other top teams allready have plently of DMC so man utd i would imagine would push for him harder.
