Roma could further reinforce the midfield ahead of the transfer deadline.
In addition to a winger, Roma want to gift Gasperini a reliable midfielder.
As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Sport, the Giallorossi have opened talks with Monza for Matteo Pessina.
Gasperini would be reunited with an old acquaintance whom he coached at Atalanta.
The Italian midfielder is returning from a partial tear of the proximal biceps femoris tendon.
