Roma have been linked with a January bid for highly-rated Bulgarian youngster Simeon Slavchev.
The Giallorossi are said to have been monitoring the Litex Lovech playmaker for some time, but face competition for his signature from Tottenham Hotspur.
Hellas Verona and Spezia have also been linked with the 20-year-old, who won his first senior cap for Bulgaria last month, Tuttomercatoweb reports.
Slavchev is reportedly valued at around €4m (£3.3m).
