Silvestre, 31, has been strongly tipped to make a return to his
French homeland and ambitious Bordeaux, but the club's chief scout
Marius Tresor has raised serious doubts.
“For Mikael Silvestre, I’m afraid it’s complicated,” said the ex
French star.
“I recently met him in the West Indies.
“He told me he was at least approached by Roma," Tresor
added.
“And as far as both teams are concerned, there’s a risk a permanent
move to Roma is more attractive than a loan to Bordeaux.”
Roma have taken a fancy to out of favour Premiership side-backs of
late, having also been strongly linked to Liverpool defender John
Arne Riise in recent weeks.
