"It was Sardar's wish to make a new start in a different environment," said Bayer 04 sporting managing director Simon Rolfes. "Unfortunately, he has battled with a lot with injuries over the last 18 months. We have reached a good agreement with Roma. Sardar can now show what he can do at an absolute top level in Serie A."
