Roma are now being linked to out-of-favor Atlético de Madrid midfielder Saúl, who spent the past year on loan at Chelsea.
According to Il Tempo, Saúl is among the names that have been offered to Roma most recently along with Marcel Sabitzer and Rodrigo De Paul.
The Italian newspaper claims that in the various meetings attended and held by Roma’s General Manager Tiago Pinto, the Portuguese director has also had the time to talk to Saúl’s entourage.
After an unsuccessful loan spell in the Premier League, the Spaniard has made his return to Madrid, where he is unlikely to stay considering that Atletico boss Diego Simeone will not include him in his plans.
