Nice forward Dario Cvitanich has revealed that he had an opportunity to join Roma in the summer transfer window.
The Giallorossi boss Rudi Garcia attempted to reinforce his attack with the Argentine forward, only to see his proposal rejected by les Aiglons.
Roma in turn signed Adem Ljajic from Fiorentina, with Cvitanich remaining at Stade Municipal du Ray.
The 29-year-old has now confirmed that he could have joined the Italian side at the end of the summer transfer window, while hinting that he could still leave Nice in the near future.
“My future? Next season we will see. I had offers this summer. A club from Qatar came forward,” Cvitanich confessed to Radio Monte Carlo.
“I also had an offer from Roma at the end of the transfer window. It was a good opportunity for me, but Nice rejected (it).”
Cvitanich has been in excellent form since joining Nice from Ajax last summer, scoring no less than 19 goals in 29 league matches during his first season at the club.
In spite of missing out on a lucrative move to Roma, the experienced forward has this season continued where he left off, notching 4 goals in first 5 league outings.
