“Lazio have the option to sign me on a permanent deal from Manchester United, so it all depends on the Biancocelesti,”
he said
.
“I know my skills have been appreciated this season and they have until end of the championship to decide.
“Roma is a wonderful city and I certainly wouldn’t mind staying here. If they don’t keep me, I will have to speak to Manchester United to see what’s best for the club and me.
“I contacted [United coach Ole Gunnar] Solskjaer to understand my future and he told me we need to talk.
“I just want to play, because I still hope for a call from Brazil for the World Cup in Qatar.”
