French daily newspaper L’Equipe understands that AS Roma are set to complete the signing of Malian midfielder Seydou Keita from Valencia.
The 34-year-old has reportedly agreed a one-year deal with the Giallorossi and he arrives on a free transfer.
Roma boss Rudi Garcia was determined to sign players with Champions League experience this summer and the Mali international certainly fits the bill.
He has won no less than two titles in Europe’s elite competition, making a total of 50 appearances and scoring 7 goals in the process while playing for Sevilla and Barcelona.
Following a successful spell in China, Keita has proved he still has what it takes to play at a high level during a six-month stint with Valencia, and he is now set for a Serie A switch.
Keita was offered a new two-year deal by los Che, but he ultimately opted to accept a lucrative offer from AS Roma.
