Roma after AM's Jemerson

By Football Italia staff

Roma have set their sights on Brazilian club Atletico Mineiro's Jemerson to bolster their defence.

The Giallorossi's backline kept up a poor record in the first half of this season and sporting director Walter Sabatini is considering options to reinforce that department.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma are looking to sign 23-year-old Jemerson from Atletico Mineiro, who could be swooped up for €10m.

However the Italian club would have to beat the competition of Porto and Monaco, who are also interested in the centre-back.
