Smalling completes medical ahead of loan move to Roma from Man Utd

Manchester United defender Chris Smalling has completed a medical at Roma's training ground on Friday, ahead of a season-long loan move.

The England international fell down the squad pecking order after the arrival of Harry Maguire from Leicester City earlier this summer and has yet to play for the Red Devils at the start of the 2019-20 campaign.

Roma, who have been on the lookout for defensive reinforcements after selling Kostas Manolas to Napoli, approached United over a possible deal for Smalling this week and he is now set to spend the rest of the season at Stadio Olimpico.
