Roma have reportedly turned their attention to Olympique Lyonnais striker Alexandre Lacazette as they attempt to strengthen their attack ahead of the 2015-16 campaign.

The 24-year-old, whose current contract with Lyon is set to expire in June 2018, has been heavily linked with quite a few big clubs throughout Europe in recent weeks, including Liverpool and Chelsea, and it seems like the Giallorossi are now considering a bid for him despite his huge price tag of around €50 million.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma would be willing to sell both Gervinho and Seydou Doumbia, who have caught the eye of several Turkish clubs as of late, this summer in order to raise funds for a new attacking player and may be ready to submit a serious offer for the French international.

Reports suggest that the Lupi are still working on landing Edin Dzeko from Manchester City and may also be monitoring Everton’s Romelu Lukaku and Aston Villa’s Christian Benteke as possible candidates to bolster the squad’s attack as well.

Lacazette scored 27 goals and provided eight assists in his 33 Ligue 1 appearances last term.
