Roma identify three reinforcements for January | OneFootball

According to Il Corriere dello Sport, Roma have identified three reinforcements for the January transfer window: a left-back, a right-back and a centre-forward.

Roma will be looking to reinforce their squad in the winter transfer window after a highly disappointing first part of the campaign, which saw them change three coaches: Daniele De Rossi, Ivan Juric, and Claudio Ranieri.

According to Il Corriere dello Sport, the Giallorossi will be looking for a right-back, a left-back and a centre-forward.

The left defender will ideally give Ranieri a backup for Angelino, given that Samuel Dahl is still not ready to compete for a starting spot and has only collected 41 minutes of football in Serie A.

The Giallorossi have even fewer options on the right, where Zeki Celik has already played 1.496 minutes. The Turkey international wasn’t even a starter last season, but Saud Abdulhamid – like Dahl – has proved to be far from the standards required to get regular playing time in the capital.

Roma will also need a backup for their best scorer, Artem Dovbyk, as Eldor Shomurodov is currently Ranieri’s only other option for the centre-forward position.
