Roma are reportedly evaluating a free transfer for veteran defender Matts Hummels.

The German centreback has been offered to several clubs in Europe.

In Italy, the player was proposed to Milan and Roma, reports Sky Sport.

However, Milan did not show interest.

Meanwhile, Roma asked for time to consider the costs involved in a deal for the big-time free agent.

According to Sky Sport, Roma are hesitant to pull the trigger on this deal due to the agent fees involved.

The capital club are intrigued by Hummels who would be an immediate replacement of Chris Smalling, set to leave the Giallorossi this summer.

However, Roma are concerned with their wage bill and intend on making sustainable decisions for their long-term future.
