Roma are not the only team in Italy to have shown interest in Celta Vigo striker Jorgen Strand Larsen.

The Norwegian attacker is the latest name to have been added to Roma’s summer shortlist to replace Romelu Lukaku.

Today’s reports in Italian media suggested that Roma director Florent Ghisolfi is very interested in the player.

Celta Vigo’s rumored request is around 20 million euros (despite the release clause being 50 million euros).

The Giallorossi, however, are not the only ones following him.

According to Sportitalia, Bologna would also be on Strand Larsen’s trail to secure an already established number 9 who would replace the departing Zirkzee.

There is also no lack of interest from Napoli and Antonio Conte: the former Inter coach would like to embrace Romelu Lukaku again but the deal is more complicated than expected and Larsen could be an excellent alternative to the Belgian.
