Roma Make Move For Olympiacos Full Back

Serie A side Roma are looking to the Greek league to kick-start their Summer transfer campaign withOlympiacos defender Arthur Masuaku as a potential first signing.

The Italian club has struggled at left back with the indifferent form of Jose Holebas and Ashley Cole as well as a long term injury to Federico Balzaretti.

However, according to Il Messaggero, the Giallorossi have set their sights on the 21-year-old French fullback who only moved to the Superleague at the start of this campaign but has been a relative success in Greece.

Roma will have to battle for the youngsters signature, as the report also suggests that Serie A rivals Interhave expressed an interest in the left back and may also tempt the former Valenciennes player with a move to Milan.

Masuaku, interestingly, was signed by Olympiacos to replace Roma-bound Holebas last season and has been arguably an improvement for the Greek club, having played 39 times in all competitions, contributing one goal and six assists.
