Italian giants AS Roma are in pole position to recruit Slovenian goalkeeper Samir Handanovic from Inter Milan, Tuttosport can reveal.
With the highly rated shot-stopper unlikely to sign an extension to the contract that is due to expire in June 2016, the Nerazzurri will have no choice but to cash in on him in the summer.
And while other top European clubs are expected to join the race, the latest reports suggest Roma lead the race to sign the 30-year-old.
Namely, Rudi Garcia is looking to sign a long-term successor to veteran Morgan De Sanctis and Handanovic is reportedly the first name on his wish list.
And with the Slovenia international believed to prefer staying in Italian Serie A, a summer move to Stadio Olimpico could be on the cards.
Roma have a perfect opportunity to revive their title bid in the league as they play host to leaders Juventus later today, with home win available at 9/5.
