Roma are reportedly eyeing up a move for one of Juan Jesus or Andrea Ranocchia, who both currently play for Scudetto rivals Inter.

Ranocchia and Jesus have both struggled to feature regularly for coach Roberto Mancini this season, as the former Sampdoria player prefers centre-backs Jeison Murillo and Miranda.

According to Sportmediaset, the Giallorossi are keen on reinforcing their defensive line, and have identified the two Nerazzurri players as January transfer targets.

It’s also believed director of football Walter Sabatini is keeping tabs on Udinese defender Thomas Heurtaux, who he has long been an admirer of.

Jesus has made six Serie A starts this season whereas Ranocchia has made just one Serie A start, but has appeared as a substitute in eight games.
