Roma start search for experienced keeper

Il Corriere dello Sport is reporting that AS Roma officials have begin their search for a new number one.

It became clear that the Giallorossi would need to sign a new shot-stopper when Maarten Stekelenburg left for Fulham, but the club officials waited for the new coach to be appointed before making any concrete moves.

New boss Rudi Garcia has expressed his desire to sign two experienced goalkeepers for the 2013/2014 season and sporting director Walter Sabatini is already working on summer reinforcements.

Italy international Morgan De Sanctis appears to be the number one target at the moment and he could definitely slot straight into the starting line-up at Stadio Olimpico.

With Napoli set to make a move on Julio Cesar, the veteran keeper will probably be allowed to leave Stadio San Paolo this summer.

Meanwhile, Roma are also showing interest in Stefano Sorrentino and Emiliano Viviano, two players who have a wealth of Serie A experience.
