Roma interested in Mahmadou Sakho?

AS Roma are reportedly keen on acquiring the services of Liverpool defender Mahmadou Sakho.

The France international was a regular for the Reds last term, but was recently left out of the club's 1-0 win over Stoke City, with manager Brendan Rodgers preferring the likes of Martin Skrtel and Dejan Lovren ahead of him for the central defensive partnership.

According to Calciomercato, Roma are planning a move for the former PSG star, as they seek a replacement for outbound defender Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa.

However, it is yet to be known as to whether Rodgers would allow the 25-year-old to leave Anfield this summer.
