Roma coach Spalletti confident Pjanic will resist Juventus

Roma coach Luciano Spalletti is confident they can keep hold of Miralem Pjanic.

The midfielder is being linked with Juventus.

"We'll evaluate things. He said to me that he wants to stay, so if he's happy, I'm happy," Spalletti shrugged.

Roma put on a show, and it's clear that some of our players are targets for other clubs. But these are the same players I have contact with every day, and they assured me they want to stay at Roma.

“We have to further evaluate it of course, because it happens in football that one club takes a player from another club.

“We'll evaluate, but the players want to keep wearing our shirt.

“Would I be angry if Pjanic went to Juve? I'm happy if the players are happy."
