Roma have laid eyes on Liverpool striker Andriy Voronin as head coach Luciano Spalletti steps up his striker search.
According to Il Corriere Dello Sport, Voronin, who has returned to Anfield following his loan spell at Hertha Berlin, is admired by Spalletti.
The Italian coach recently claimed he wanted "a striker who can play on the wings with speed". Voronin fits the bill, and the Giallorossi are ready to make a move.
The report suggests Liverpool would be willing to sell the Ukrainian hitman to Roma, but the Italians do not have the cash to buy at the moment. A loan deal is being mooted, but voices surrounding Voronin suggest he only wants a permanent three-year deal. Voronin is currently on €2 million-per-season at Anfield, but the Giallorossi would only be able to stretch to €1.5m.
A part-exchange deal involving Lupi midfielder Alberto Aquilani has also been mooted. The Italians have already claimed Aquilani may be sold for the right money, and recent reports implied Liverpool were eyeing the Roman as a replacement for Xabi Alonso, who has been linked with Real Madrid.
The third option Roma have is a co-ownership deal. Liverpool could offer the Giallorossi a stake in Voronin plus €15m in return for Aquilani.
No official comment regarding the deal has been made.
