AS Roma legend Giuseppe Giannini isn't surprised to hear Daniele de Rossi could be sold.

Roma GM Franco Baldini declared yesterday they would listen to offers for the Manchester City target.

"I do not see anything negative. Excluding Francesco Totti, virtually all other players may be offered for sale," Giannini told TMW.

"I say this especially in light of the social moment that is passing over the country, even though it is clear that as a fan I would always keep the best.

"But if we consider the sale of Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva this summer it is clear, as well, that De Rossi can go."
