Real Madrid star midfielder Julio Cesar Baptista seems to be one foot out of the Bernabeu and one foot into the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
AS Roma Roma manager Daniele Pradé is currently in the Spanish capital, according to the Madrid based Spanish sports daily Marca, to hold talks with the Real Madrid chief to discuss a deal over the Brazilian international midfielder.
Baptista was sparingly used last season by Real coach Bernd Schuster and with the arrival of Rafael van der Vaart to Real this summer, there is little chance that he can go on and play regularly. Roma are said to lash out around 10 million euros and Real Madrid might just agree to that sum in the next few days.
