Fazio is essential at Roma right now

Roma coach Luciano Spalletti has been impressed with 29-year-old (30 in March) on-loan Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Federico Fazio which all makes his official summer signing a certainly. Indeed I believe they have already activated the clause in the loan agreement to buy him in the summer for a set fee after he played the requisite number of games.

Question - Federico Fazio has found his stride. His timing is very good; he can also start moves off. Is that added value for your Roma side?
Answer - “As a centre-back he always gets on the ball. He has time to come out and he’s good with the ball at his feet. He organises the back line. He was a holding midfielder at the start of his career. He can play nice crisp passes. He doesn’t let us down with what he offers. Right now we couldn’t get by without him.”
