José Mourinho has asked the Giallorossi for a new fullback in the winter market. Diogo Dalot was identified as a target, but Ralf Rangnick preferring him ahead of Aaron Wan-Bissaka could make it difficult for Roma to take the ex-Porto man away from Manchester United.
This is according to Thursday’s edition of Corriere dello Sport, who then add the Canaries star is also on the agenda of the Italian capital club.
It’s claimed that Roma would prefer to take the defender on a loan deal with the right of redemption, while Dean Smith’s side value the England U21 international at €22m.
Mourinho’s side will not have it easy to take the player away from his club as Everton are also in the picture for his signing. The newspaper states the Merseyside club ‘like’ Aarons and will be battling it out with Roma for his signature.
Corriere add chances of the fullback leaving his current employer are ‘growing’, so one of Roma and Everton can try to sign him in the coming windows.
The Toffees have already raided Carrow Road to take Ben Godfrey in 2020 and tried to take Emi Buendía in the last window, before he joined Aston Villa.

Earlier reports in the British press stated Brands’ style of negotiating for the Godfrey deal didn’t please the Canaries.
