Aquilani has been involved in frustrating contract negotiations with Roma all summer, and his future at the club has become increasingly uncertain in recent weeks due to the failure of both sides to find a compromise.
The highly rated Italy international’s current deal expires in 2010 and he has made it perfectly clear that he expects €2.5m in wages per year in order to pen an extension.
Until now, the highest Roma had been willing to offer was €1.6m, and negotiations had reportedly become so bad that the Giallorossi were even ready to sell the midfielder this summer, with Juventus and Inter both ready to pounce.
However, Il Messagero today claims that Aquilani is now set to finally sign a new contract after Roma bowed to his wishes and offered him €2.5m per year until 2013.
The new deal will include bonuses depending on attendance and performance, but Aquilani is expected to put pen to paper within the next seven days.
The 24-year-old is Roma through-and-through, having been born in the city, and having graduated through the club’s famous youth system along with the likes of Daniele De Rossi and Gianluca Curci.
