The Brazilian winger had seemed virtually certain to quit the Giallorossi either this month or at the end of the season.
Mancini’s contract runs out in 2009 and the club are refusing to break their salary cap in order for him to stay.
However it has been revealed that the 27-year-old is set to part company with his current agent Gilmar Veloz, and replace him with Alessandro Luci.
The player has also confirmed he intends to stay put,
"I have no problems with the club," said Mancini on the club's official TV channel.
"There's an honest and friendly rapport with the club.
"We have been unable to reach a deal for a contract extension but these are things that happen and we will no doubt try again.
"My wish is to remain here."
Parting of ways with his agent could lead to renewed contract negotiations, which had completely collapsed.
Mancini is of interest to a host of Europe’s giants, however the current favourites for his signature are believed to be Lyon and Premiership duo Liverpool and Manchester City.
The skilful wideman joined Roma in 2002 from Atletico Mineiro and following a season on loan at Venezia, he has since established himself as a key figure at the Stadio Olimpico.
